Method

Cocktail

1

Chill glass

Place a highball or Collins glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill it with ice water while preparing ingredients to thoroughly chill the glass.

2

Build the base

Remove the glass from the freezer or discard the ice water. Add the cubed ice to fill roughly half the glass (about 1 cup).

3

Add spirits & mixers

Pour 2 oz gin, 0.5 oz yuzu liqueur, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.25 oz simple syrup over the ice.

4

Stir briefly

Using a bar spoon, gently stir the contents for 8–10 seconds to chill and lightly dilute the spirit base.

5

Top with Fever-Tree

Slowly pour 3 oz Fever-Tree tonic into the glass over the back of the bar spoon (or down the side) to preserve carbonation and create a layered effervescence.

6

Finish with ice & garnish

Add the cracked or pebble ice (about 1/2 cup) on top to create a cold crown. Express the oils from one yuzu peel or lime twist over the drink by holding it skin-side down and giving it a quick twist, then drop it in. Float a lime wheel on top or garnish on the rim.

7

Serve

Present immediately with a straw (optional). Stir once or twice before drinking to integrate tonic and spirit if desired.
