Shake for 10-15 seconds.

Strain into a high ball or tiki glass.

Fill with fresh cubed ice /or the ice from your shaker.

Pour 5ml of grenadine over the back of a spoon into the drink.

Equipment

Tiki Mug*
Cocktail Shaker**
Jigger/Measure***
Ice****
Hawthorne Strainer †
Fine Strainer ††

* If you don’t have this glassware try and choose something that will fit the volume of the liquid well, preferably with a sturdy build e.g. a decent-sized mug. At a push you can use pretty much anything, it’s more about the flavour than the presentation, right?

** If you don’t have a cocktail shaker there are several other items we could employ.  A mason jar, a reusable coffee mug or water bottle, or a sturdy Tupperware – ideally not the takeaway food style and be sure it’s clean and free from food particles.

*** If you don’t have a jigger (fancy bar name for a liquid measure) work from the principle that a tablespoon is 15ml.

**** Before embarking on a cocktail making adventure be sure you have sufficient ice. Ice is the second most important ingredient in a cocktail after the alcohol. If you have ice trays at home load them up a few times in preparation and bag the resulting ice up for later use. If you don’t happen to have ice trays you can freeze water in zip lock bags and then break it up.

The Hawthorne strainer is usually used for a “first strain” which separates the main solids from the liquid cocktail e.g. the ice. Instead of a Hawthorne strainer you can use the lid/cap of your makeshift shaker or any solid item that can sit flat on its top.

†† A fine strainer is like a small sieve on a handle. It serves to take any bits missed by the initial strain and the tiny flecks of ice out of the cocktail for a smooth texture. This is called a fine or double strain and is not strictly necessary but if you want to have a go you can use a regular tea strainer or sieve.  

History

Our alcohol-free Fog-Cutter combines, Seedlip Spice, Caleño and Three Spirit to give a distinct range of flavour and complexity. Like the original, this mix of alcohol-free spirits is paired with orange juice, fresh citrus and nutty almond syrup. To give a final flourish of colour and fruity flavour, we finish the drink with a generous drizzle of grenadine giving it a delectable two-tone look.
