Cocktail of the Week
Jackcherry
12 August 2008
Traditionally thought of as quite a masculine spirit, here I've softened it up with sugar syrup, fruit and herbs to show how versatile Jack Daniel's can be. The cherries work well with the caramel, vanilla and toasted oak flavours of the whiskey.
INGREDIENTS:
60ml Jack Daniel's
30ml Lemon Juice
10ml Sugar Syrup
3 Cherries
2 Sage leaves
1 Thyme stalk - crushed
Peach bitters
METHOD:
Muddle the Cherries with the herbs. Add the remaining ingredients and shake well with ice. Strain into a chilled goblet.
GARNISH:
A Cherry skewered with a sage leaf.
