Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Gather Ingredients

    Collect all the ingredients needed for the Tatterfly cocktail: gin, pamplemousse, fresh lemon juice, Peychaud's bitters, and a lemon twist for garnish.

  2. 2

    Chill the Glass

    Place a cocktail glass in the freezer or fill it with ice water to chill while you prepare the cocktail. This will ensure your drink stays cold.

Mixing

    Combine Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, pour in 2 oz of gin, 1 oz of pamplemousse, and 0.5 oz of fresh lemon juice.

  2. 4

    Add Bitters

    Add 2 dashes of Peychaud's bitters to the shaker. This will provide a complex flavor to the cocktail.

  3. 5

    Shake

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

Serving

  1. 6

    Strain and Serve

    Remove the ice from your chilled glass and strain the cocktail mixture into the glass using a fine mesh strainer.

  2. 7

    Garnish

    Express the oils from a lemon twist by twisting it over the drink, and then place it on the rim or in the cocktail.

  3. 8

    Enjoy

    Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Tatterfly cocktail!
