Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ounce Non-alcoholic elderflower syrup
  • 1/2 ounce Food-grade rose water
  • 1/2 ounce Freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 5 ounces Premium tonic water such as Fever-Tree
  • 1 cup Ice cubes
  • Dried pink rosebuds optional garnish

Equipment

  • Long Stemmed Cocktail Spoon
  • Edge Glass

Method
 

  1. Prep the Glass: Take a large wine glass or a highball glass and fill it to the top with fresh, solid ice cubes.
  2. Add the Aromatics: Pour the elderflower syrup, rose water, and fresh lemon juice directly over the ice.
  3. Top with Tonic: Slowly pour the premium tonic water into the glass. Pouring it slowly down the side of the glass helps preserve the crisp carbonation.
  4. Gentle Lift: Insert a long bar spoon to the bottom of the glass and give it a single, gentle upward swirl to blend the floral syrups with the tonic without destroying the bubbles.
  5. Garnish: Drop a few dried culinary rosebuds onto the surface foam and weave a thin cucumber ribbon into the ice for a refreshing aromatic contrast.
