Combine and shake
Add Seedlip Spice (2 oz), fresh lemon juice (0.75 oz) and a handful of ice (about 1 cup) to the shaker. Cap the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until well chilled and slightly frothy.

Double strain (optional)
If you prefer a clear, smooth drink without leaf fragments, double strain the shaken mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a chilled serving glass. If you like a more rustic presentation, strain through the shaker's strainer only.

Lengthen (optional)
If you want a longer, lighter cocktail, top with about 1 oz cold water or chilled soda after straining and gently stir once to combine.
