Method

How to make Archangel

Follow the 6 reviewed catalog steps in order.

  1. 01

    Chill a classic cocktail glass, cut two quarter-inch cucumber slices, and prepare one short narrow lemon twist.

  2. 02

    Muddle the two cucumber slices firmly in a clean mixing glass until their juice and aroma are released.

  3. 03

    Measure the gin and orange aperitif into the mixing glass, then fill it with solid ice.

  4. 04

    Stir steadily for 25 seconds so the cocktail is cold, integrated, and properly diluted.

  5. 05

    Double-strain through a fine mesh into the chilled glass so no cucumber pulp reaches the drink.

  6. 06

    Express the single compact lemon twist over the surface, retain it neatly, and serve.
