Aegean Mastiha Mist

Description

Mastiha gives this fizz a piney, resinous perfume, made brighter by lemon liqueur and a twist. Cucumber cordial cools down the middle, and sparkling wine carries those delicate aromas. It’s a more herbal direction for someone who enjoys a cucumber spritz or a botanical aperitif.

Ingredients

40 ml Mastiha
20 ml Lemon Liqueur
10 ml Cucumber Cordial
60 ml Sparkling Wine
Ice
Lemon twist

Equipment needed

Bar Spoon – Used to stir the drink smoothly with ice before serving. Muddler – Useful for gently pressing herbs, fruit or sugar when building the drink.

Instructions

Add Mastiha, Lemon Liqueur, and Cucumber Cordial to a shaker with ice; keep Sparkling Wine out of the shaker.
Shake briefly until the base is well chilled.
Strain into the serving glass over fresh ice.
Top gently with Sparkling Wine, stir once or twice, and garnish.
