Brandy meets tonic and Benedictine in this concoction from the Gimlet Bar...
Brandy and tonic water? Good grief! My friends Harry and Charles at the Gimlet Bar came up with this concoction to fulfil your Great Expectations, even in Hard Times or the Bleakest House. Serves one.
30ml French brandy or cognac
30ml Benedictine
10ml lemon juice
40ml tonic water
1 wide strip lemon zest
Half-fill a small metal Julep cup or rocks glass with crushed ice. Pour in all the liquids, and stir. Top with more ice, twist the lemon over the drink to release the oil, then tuck it into the ice and serve with a paper straw.
