A Daisy is a long cocktail with a high proportion of alcohol and sweetened with fruit syrup. Perhaps it gets its name from the now old-fashioned slang when the word ‘Daisy ‘referred to something exceptional and special.
INGREDIENT:
3 measures gin
1 measure lemon juice
1 tbsp grenadine
1tsp sugar syrup
4-6 cracked ice cubes
Soda water
Slice or orange, to decorate
METHOD:
1. Pour the gin, lemon juice, and grenadine and sugar syrup over the cracked ice and shake vigorously until well frosted.
2. Strain into a chilled highball glass and top up with soda water.
3. Stir gently, and then decorate with an orange slice.
