Bartender top tips
The premise of many cocktails is to balance the right proportion of alcohol, a sour agent, a sweet element & then add a lengthening mixer of some type. If you get these four components correct & in the right ratio, you are generally onto a winner. This ‘PPP’ cocktail does just that, the Star of Bombay balances with the sour pink grapefruit and the sweetness comes from the raspberry cordial then we add interest & intrigue by lengthening with MARTINI Prosecco and finishing with tingly pink peppercorns. Essentially, it’s a modern-day, French 75 cocktail rift!
