Clover Club Cocktail Recipe
The Clover Club is a classic gin cocktail with a beautiful pink hue. It's tart, sweet, and frothy, with a velvety texture that's hard to resist. Let's break down how to make this delightful drink at home.
Equipment
- Cocktail shaker
- Hawthorne Strainer
- Fine mesh Strainer
- Jigger or measuring tool
- Coupe Glass
Ingredients
- 2 oz gin we recommend London Dry Gin like Beefeater
- 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice
- 3/4 oz raspberry syrup
- 1 egg white
- Fresh raspberries or lemon peel twist for garnish
Instructions
- Add the gin, lemon juice, raspberry syrup, and egg white to a shaker.
- Dry shake (without ice) for 10 to 15 seconds to whip up the egg white.
- Open the shaker, add ice, and shake again for another 10 to 15 seconds to chill and dilute the drink.
- Double strain into a chilled coupe glass.
- Garnish with fresh raspberries or a lemon twist.
Notes
- Always use fresh ingredients. Fresh lemon juice makes a huge difference.
- Never skip the dry shake. It is the secret to a smooth, creamy foam.
- Pre-chill your coupe glass. A cold glass keeps the drink crisp and refreshing.
- Fine-strain homemade raspberry syrup to avoid seeds in your cocktail.
- Get creative with presentation. A dropper of bitters can create a beautiful design on the foam for an extra fancy touch.
