Tanqueray French 75

Ingredients:
25ml Tanqueray London Dry Gin
Half a Lemon
15ml of Sugar Syrup
40ml of Champagne
Ice Cubes

Method
Pour Tanqueray London Dry into a shaker, crush half a lemon and add the juice to the mix, add the 15ml of sugar syrup and ice cubes and shake. Double strain into a coupette glass and top up with champagne. Twist the peel of a lemon over the glass.

Tanqueray London Dry Gin (£20.50 from alexanderandjames.com) has an elegance that sets it apart from the rest and a flavour that shines in sophisticated cocktails and vibrant gin and tonics. Its great flavour is achieved by the blend of the finest botanicals including juniper, coriander, angelica and liquorice. When purchased from alexanderandjames.com, the bottle arrives in a beautiful gift box.
