In the interests of investigation and fearless gastronomy, once upon a time we purchased a small bottle of Buckfast at the co-op in Broadford. It has been languishing in our kitchen ever since. Neither of us has developed a taste for it at all, but every now and again we try it out as an ingredient. It works as part of a cocktail.
INGREDIENTS:
- 25ml London dry gin
- 25ml Buckfast
- 25ml Campari
- 3 dashes of orange bitters
METHOD:
- Put about six cubes of ice in a mixing glass, and pour the ingredients over the ice.
- Stir for around 2 minutes, to chill the ingredients and dilute them with melted ice.
- Serve in a small glass over ice.
