The Torridon’s Scottish Food & Drink Fortnight themed cocktail, created by the 1887 restaurant’s manager, Gautier Cartron. Using traditionally Scottish ingredients that have been sourced from the hotel’s two-acre Kitchen Garden, alongside its own gin, Arcturus, the Garden Tipple offers a sweet, herbal hit.

 

Ingredients

  • 30ml Arcturus gin
  • 15 ml cherry brandy
  • 1 branch garden rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon garden raspberry jam
  • 20ml Herbal tea (Aching muscles)
  • Juice of ½ lemon

 

Method

If you have a cocktail shaker, shake all the ingredients together for 30 seconds, then strain over a martini glass.

If you don’t have a shaker, you can double, triple or increase the quantity and put everything together to macerate for four hours.
