Turtle Blossom – the finest Fijian gin and bubbles, perfect for any occasion.
Chill your glass in the fridge beforehand. This ensures your cocktail stays refreshingly cool.
In a shaker or jar, combine Blue Turtle Gin, fresh lime juice, and Barkers Elderflower Syrup.
Add a handful of ice to the shaker and shake vigorously for about 10-15 seconds or until the outside of the shaker feels cold. This ensures the ingredients are well mixed and chilled.
Strain the mixture into your chilled glass.
Gently top up the glass with champagne (or sparkling wine) for a bubbly finish. Pour slowly to preserve the effervescence.
Place an elderflower sprig on top of the drink for a delicate, floral touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy the tropical, floral elegance of your Turtle Blossom!
Pro tip: For an extra touch of Fiji, rim the glass with a light dusting of sugar or edible flowers before pouring the cocktail. This adds a beautiful aesthetic and a hint of sweetness with every sip.
