Method
How to make Crimea
Follow the 6 reviewed catalog steps in order.
- 01
Chill a coupe, reserve one attractive cilantro leaf for garnish, and place the other five leaves in a shaker.
- 02
Press the cilantro gently with a muddler just enough to release its aroma without pulverizing the leaves.
- 03
Add the gin, cloudy apple cider, lemon juice, and rich syrup; add the optional chilled water only when using hard, dry freezer ice.
- 04
Fill with ice and shake hard for 10–15 seconds until thoroughly chilled.
- 05
Fine-strain into the chilled coupe to remove herb fragments and ice chips.
- 06
Float the reserved cilantro leaf flat at the center and serve immediately.
