Soo.... this is a bit on the late side. A combo of technical issues and broken feet (well, only one broken foot) delayed this a lot a lot.

Clover Club Cocktail

Clover Club Cocktail

Ingredients

· 1 1/2 ounces gin

· 1/2 ounce dry vermouth

· 1/2 ounce lemon juice

· 1/2 ounce raspberry syrup (see recipe below)

· 1/4 ounce FRESH egg white

Garnish: 2 or 3 raspberries

Directions

· Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker with ice.

· Shake until chilled and strain.

· Add the drink back to the tin and shake again, without ice (this helps the egg get creamy and fluffy).

· Pour the drink into a chilled cocktail glass.

· Garnish with raspberries.

Raspberry Syrup:

· 1/2 cup fresh or frozen raspberries

· 1 cup sugar

· 1/2 cup WARM water

· 1/2 ounce vodka

Thaw raspberries if using frozen. Smash the raspberries and mix thoroughly with the sugar. Allow them to macerate for 30 minutes. Heat the water and pour over the fruit mixture. Stir until the sugar has dissolved. Strain the mixture and fortify with the vodka. (Shéa added the vodka BEFORE straining and let it sit in the fridge for 24 hours before straining. This really infuses the raspberry flavor.)

Alternatively, the cocktail can be made by replacing the half ounce of raspberry syrup with a half ounce of simple syrup (1 part sugar to one part water) muddled with 3 to 4 fresh raspberries directly in the shaker.
