Cocktail recipe: Burns night martini | Alba - The Times

This martini nods to Burns Night with the inclusion of Old Pulteney, a single-malt Scotch whisky from a coastal location that gives it a saltiness that perfectly balances with the floral aromas of the gin's botanicals.

Ingredients

20ml Caorunn gin
5ml Old Pulteney 12-year-old whisky
25ml Italicus liqueur
30ml dry vermouth
Slice of Cox apple

Method
1. Add the liquid ingredients to a cocktail shaker with ice, and shake for 20 seconds.

2. Pour into a coupette glass over a chunk of ice and garnish with the apple.
