300ml newly squeezed clementine juice
200ml fresh lemon juice
500g caster sugar
For the Premix (yields 850ml, to serve 10)
400ml good quality vodka
100ml dry gin
150ml peach liqueur
200ml clementine cordial (from the recipe above)
Fresh cranberries, as a garnish
Mandarin essential oil, for finishing
Directions
To prepare the Citrus Syrup: Place all the items into a saucepan, heat until it reaches a gentle boil, mixing until the sugar dissolves. After that, take off the stove and leave to cool entirely. Transfer into a sealable bottle, cap it and refrigerate it chilled, it can be stored for up to four weeks.
For the Premix: Combine all the liquid ingredients into one sizeable container, let it rest for one hour, then filter it best through cheesecloth, making it completely strained.
For serving: Measure 85ml of your cocktail base into your cocktail shaker filled with ice, gently stirring lightly for a minute to cool it down. Pour to a chilled martini glass or similar, top with the cranberries and complete it using a quick spritz of mandarin oil over the top.
