Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients needed for the Sakura Martini. Make sure to have sakura-infused gin, sake, fresh lemon juice, and optional simple syrup ready.

  2. 2

    Chill the Glass

    To enhance the drinking experience, chill your martini glass by filling it with ice water. Let it sit while you prepare the cocktail.

Mixing

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, pour 2 oz of sakura-infused gin, 1 oz of sake, 0.5 oz of fresh lemon juice, and if desired, 0.5 oz of simple syrup.

  2. 4

    Shake Well

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

  3. 5

    Strain into Glass

    Remove the ice water from your chilled martini glass and strain the mixture from the shaker into the glass.

Garnishing

  1. 6

    Add Garnish

    Gently place 5 edible cherry blossom petals on top of the cocktail. Then, add a twist of lemon peel for an aromatic finish.
