Jabberwocky - my absolute favourite cocktail right now!

It is my personal mission to get more people drinking a Jabberwocky - one of the best lesser known cocktails you will find.

Not only is it fun to say, this marriage of dry sherry, gin and Lillet (a variation on the Jabberwock from the Savoy Cocktail book), is a most refined and nuanced sipper and a big thank you to my friends at The Black Pearl for introducing me to this one!

Specs:
20ml (2/3oz) London Dry gin
20ml (2/3oz) manzanilla sherry
20ml (2/3oz) Lillet blanc
2 dashes of orange bitters
Lemon twist to garnish

Equipment:
A coupe glass
A mixing glass
A jigger
A barspoon
A julep strainer
Prepare your twist.

Method:
Add all ingredients to the mixing glass, fill with as much ice as possible and stir until desired dilution.
Strain into chilled coupe glass, squeeze the lemon twist to expel the citrus oil over it, then add the twist to the drink. Enjoy!

Suggested spirits:
Manzanilla is a dry sherry from the coastal region of Spain. We used La Goya because we’re lucky enough to have access to a large selection of sherries and we love the salinity of it, but a manzanilla from the larger bodegas such as Tio Pepe or Lustau will work just fine.
Sticking with the Spanish theme we used Gin Mare which has lots of Mediterranean herbal notes, but any gin will work- the more savoury the better in our opinion!
Lillet Blanc is called for in the original recipe and does work best here, but any bianco vermouth can be substituted in a pinch.
