The Covent Garden Hotel's Saketini – Cocktail Guide
For something a little unexpected, try this elegant, martini-style cocktail. It’s light, aromatic and sippable, and complements small pieces of parmesan.
Japanese-Inspired Martini
Serves 1
30ml gin – a quality London dry gin is ideal
15ml Lillet Blanc – an aromatic French aperitif wine
15ml sake – preferably a delicate, balanced sake
Pour the gin, Lillet Blanc, and sake into a shaker, toss in plenty of ice cubes and stir for 30 seconds to chill well. Strain into a well-chilled martini glass and serve.
