SPICE UP THE FESTIVITIES
It wouldn't be Christmas without a warming tipple now, would it? Allow Penhaligon's and Murray of @thewestmount to offer some advice on how best to prepare the most wintery win of all.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
Mulled Negroni
25ml London Dry Gin
25ml Campari
25ml Mulled Sweet Vermouth
Dehydrated orange to garnish
HOW TO DO IT:
Add all ingredients to a mixing glass and stir for approximately 30 seconds to dilute and chill the cocktail.
Serve into a rocks glass over ice and garnish the cocktail with a dehydrated orange slice or orange zest.
As for the mulled vermouth: I used Cucielo Rosso (a beautiful vermouth di Torino). I added 250ml of vermouth and let it simmer on a pan with 50g of caster sugar, 1 cinnamon stick, 5 cloves, 1 star anise, 1/2 grated nutmeg, the rind from 2 mandarins and 1 lime and 1/2 of a scraped vanilla pod!
