Angostura’s ‘Original’ Pink Gin
INGREDIENTS
- 60ml gin
- 2 dashes Angostura aromatic bitters
- Ice
METHOD
In a mixing glass filled with ice stir together gin and bitters, then strain into a serving glass over ice and get ready to indulge in a classic.
Although there aren’t many variations on the classic you could add your favourite mixer or try your hand at experimenting if you’re feeling a little more creative. Cedric Charles Dickens (great-grandson of Charles Dickens) had his own method for a Pink Gin. His version, called a ‘Burnt Pink Gin’, consisted of one teaspoon Angostura aromatic bitters burnt by heating over a flame, poured into a large tot of dry gin.
So, what’s stopping you from creating your own classic?
