The Covent Garden Hotel's Saketini – Cocktail Guide

To try something unique, try this elegant, martini-style cocktail. It’s light, aromatic and sippable, and pairs nicely with a few chunks of parmesan.

Saketini

Makes a single portion

30ml gin – opt for a crisp gin variety

15ml Lillet Blanc – a floral and citrus aperitif

15ml sake – a light, medium-bodied one, ideally

Combine the gin, Lillet Blanc, and sake in a cocktail shaker, toss in plenty of ice cubes and mix for half a minute until cold. Strain into a well-chilled martini glass and serve.
