Mixologist, Oisin Davis joins Tom for his weekly fix of a new cocktail mix.

 

For The Carrot Top, Oisin says; "In honour of the of Redhead Convention that's taking place this weekend in Cork, I had to come up with a drink with ginger in it. Perhaps if any of the carrot haired folk attending the festival need a spicy beverage or too, they could give this one a whirl. After all, even copper tops can't get by on Duracells alone." 

 

50 ml Havana Club 3 Year Old rum

20 ml ginger wine

5 ml ginger syrup 

5 ml lime juice 

A carrot ribbon 

 

Chill a coupe glass with some ice. Place the rum, wine, syrup and juice in a shaker with some ice. Seal and shake it hard for 10 seconds. Remove the ice from the glass and strain the cocktail in. Garnish with the carrot ribbon.
