Wessex Wanderlust
This well-travelled short drink combines Star of Bombay with Benedictine liqueur, almond milk, cloudy apple juice & a grating of fresh nutmeg to create a silky-smooth texture that pulls on the ambrette seeds, one of the two additional botanicals in Star of Bombay. Not suitable for imbibers with nut allergies.

Bartender top tips
If you want to achieve a foamier texture with a shaken cocktail, shake the liquid with no ice for about 10 seconds then add ice and shake for a further 10 seconds. This will make it foamier on top and the foam will also last longer.
