BISHOP COCKTAIL

A cocktail with red wine as the base. I like it a bit sweeter, so I increased the simple syrup from 3/4 oz to 1 oz. Use a fruity, full-bodied wine like a cabernet sauvignon.

Categories     Gin     Wine     Alcoholic     Cocktail Party     House & Garden     Drink

Yield Serves 1.

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 ounces gin
2 ounces Stone's ginger wine
2 or 3 ice cubes

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass and stir well. Strain into a cocktail glass.

Tips:

  • Choose the right gin: A high-quality London dry gin is the traditional choice for a Bishop's Cocktail. Look for a gin with a strong juniper flavor and a clean, crisp finish.
  • Use fresh lemon juice: Fresh lemon juice adds a bright, tart flavor to the cocktail. Avoid using bottled lemon juice, which can be bitter and artificial-tasting.
  • Add a touch of sweetness: A small amount of sugar or simple syrup can help to balance out the tartness of the lemon juice and gin. However, be careful not to add too much sugar, as this can make the cocktail too sweet.
  • Serve chilled: The Bishop's Cocktail is best served chilled. You can chill the cocktail by shaking it with ice or by serving it over ice.
