Summer and the holidays are times for cocktails on the lawn. Realising that the Cape has a rich heritage of spirits that can be used in cocktails, I have decided to create some new ones.
Using Van Der Hum liqueur, Salt River Gin and Caperitif ‘Kaapse
Dief’, I made a cocktail that I have called the Cape Hummingbird. It is a sweet
nectar-like cocktail.
The recipe is:
1 tot measure Van Der
Hum Liqueur
1 tot measure Salt River Gin
1 tot measure Caperitif, Kaapse Dief
Pour all ingredients into a cocktail shaker with lots of ice
and shake well. Put half a slice of orange into a cocktail glass, pour the
cocktail over it and enjoy al fresco in a beautiful garden.
A delicious cocktail that epitomises sunbird happiness. Definitely destined to become a summer institution. Thanks for this latest treat.
