Here is a super refreshing cocktail perfect for this springtime, with fresh mint, cucumber, and a touch of rose water. This cocktail is called ‘Juliet & Romeo’ and has been created in 2007 by bartender Toby Maloney, but I discovered it only recently thanks to one of my favorite Youtuber Anders Erickson.
It is really a good cocktail and you can find his specs down below, cheers!
-ITALIAN VERSION-
JULIET & ROMEO COCKTAIL
‘A lovestruck Romeo sang the streets of serenade’ così cantavano i Dire Straits, e questo cocktail verde brillante si chiama proprio ‘Juliet and Romeo’. Si tratta di una ricetta originale creata da Toby Maloney nel 2007, che ho scoperto tramite uno dei miei Youtuber preferiti Anders Erickson. È un drink perfetto per la primavera e l’estate grazie al suo fresco mix di gin, menta e cetriolo, ed ecco a voi le specs:
Ingredienti
60 ml London dry gin,
22.5 ml sciroppo di zucchero semplice (diluizione 1:1)
22.5 ml succo di lime
3 fette di cetriolo
5/8 foglie di menta
Un pizzico di sale
3 gocce di acqua di rose
3 gocce di angostura per la decorazione
