[Recipe] Pomme Gimlet by KK of Frank's Bar (KL)

This elegant cocktail from KK of Frank's Bar in KL, utilizes the specs of a gimlet, but swaps gin for pisco, and lime for apple, a fruit which symbolizes peace, safety, and harmony during Chinese New Year.

Ingredients:

• 30ml Pisco 

• 5ml Fernet Branca 

• 40ml Granny Smith Cordial*

• Kefir Lime leaf (garnish)

Make the Granny Smith Cordial:

Juice Granny Smith apples to yield 500ml juice, let it sit until oxidation causes separation, then coffee-filter for clarity. Add 100ml simple syrup and 5g malic acid. Stir until fully dissolved.

Method:

Stir all ingredients in mixing glass with ice, serve in stemmed glass and garnish with a Kefir Lime leaf.
