Summer Strawberry Sour

50ml Seedlip Garden
25ml strawberry syrup (see recipe below)
5ml fresh lemon juice
25ml egg white

Add all ingredients to a cocktail tin and dry shake. Add cubed ice to the tin and shake a second time. Strain into a chilled sour glass and serve.

To make the strawberry syrup: you can purchase good quality syrups but I would recommend, while we have the season, making your own – it’s quite simple.

250g fresh strawberries, topped
100g caster sugar
100g Verjus

Combine the strawberries and sugar in a sealable container, and leave in the fridge overnight to infuse. Blend the strawberry sugar mix with Verjus then strain through a muslin cloth. Store syrup in the fridge.
