Moon Mist

Moon Mist

Ingredients

  • 1.5oz London Dry Gin
  • 0.75oz Triple Sec
  • 0.5oz Creme Violette
  • 0.25oz Lemon Juice
  • 0.25oz Lime Juice
  • Orange Twist

Method

  1. Shake all liquid ingredients with ice
  2. Double strain into a Champagne flute
  3. Garnish with orange twist

Garnish
Peel a strip of orange peel and cut into a long rectangular shape, then twist over the cocktail and rest it on the rim of the glass.

Notes
A twist on a modern classic by the late Gaz Regan, Moon Mist is an homage to the Moonlight Cocktail. Orange oils and Triple Sec add a fruity, orangey note while the mixture of lime and lemon help to compliment the Creme Violette and it’s floral flavours. A London Dry gin works best in this cocktail as the strong Juniper helps bond the flavours. For a more herbal version, try with Honey I’m Home gin.
