Step 1: You will need

  • 50 ml gin
  • 10 ml triple sec
  • 10 ml carpano punt e mes
  • 25 ml cranberry juice
  • 1 dash of lemon juice
  • 1 orange
  • Some ice cubes
  • 1 shot measure
  • 1 martini glass
  • 1 mixing glass
  • 1 bar spoon or stirrer
  • 1 strainer

Step 2: Prepare your cocktail

For a stir and strain cocktail we use a mixing glass.

Firstly, half fill it with ice cubes.

Then measure out 50 millilitres or a large splash of gin and pour it over the ice.

Add 10 millilitres, just a dash of triple sec.

Next pour in a dash of carpano punt a mes.

Follow this with a splash of cranberry juice

Now, cut a lemon in half, squeeze the juice of one half into the mixing glass.

Now stir well with a bar spoon or stirrer. This chills the ingredients.

Then attach a strainer to the mixing glass. If you don't have one a sieve will suffice.

Step 3: Present your cocktail

Simply strain the cocktail into your martini glass.

Take an orange and peel it with a knife.

Take a piece of the peel, twist it to release the zest and drop it into the glass.

Now serve and enjoy your cocktail.
