Like gin? This will change your life (and liver). Complex, bitter, sharp, sweet? Yup, yup, yup and yup.
The days of chucking a glug of tonic in your gin are over. This is a simple upgrade for your standard mixer. Simple to make, but it does take a bit of time to clarify.
Take a bunch of oranges (I used 20 but they were pretty small). Using a veg peeler, roughly peel the skin off and keep to one side.
Halve and juice the oranges, and add the peel into the juice. Blend the peel and juice together. Add a tbsp of citric acid and a tbsp of fructose. Also add a few drops of pectinase to clarify the juice, then pour through a chemex (or other coffee filter).
This step takes aaaaaaaages.
But! It’s worth the wait, the end result is a perfect mixer for gin (or whisky) try it as a replacement for tonic, or into a Negroni. Bliss.
