At home cheats

If you don’t have any bar equipment at home, you can easily use household items to make the perfect serve

• A standard espresso cup = 75ml

• One tablespoon = 15-20ml

• Use any jar with a lid as an alternative to a cocktail shaker

• Fill a tupperware box with water and freeze for 24hrs then break the resulting ice block

• To make sugar syrup, mix water and caster sugar in a 2:1 ratio e.g. 100g sugar and 50ml water

• An alternative to Angostura bitters would be to add a small pinch of salt and pepper to the sugar syrup

• If you can’t get hold of orange bitters, then peel 2 or 3 orange zests and spritz them into the glass before you pour the drink in
