Gibson cocktail

• small silverskin pickled onions↗3
• gin↗65ml ml
• dry vermouth↗5ml ml
• ice

Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Start by making the garnish by charring the onions in a hot non-stick frying pan to obtain colour (about 4-5mins) then set aside to cool.

2. 2

   Pour all of the ingredients into a mixing glass or jug, add cubed ice and stir for around 30 seconds to achieve the desired dilution. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass, or for extra flair pour it into a small glass bottle and sit it in an ice-filled tumbler to act as a mini ice bucket. Serve with a small liqueur or port glass on the side to pour it into.

3. 3

   Thread the cooled onions onto a cocktail stick and use to garnish the drink.
