Ingredients
- 2 oz sloe gin
- ¾ oz lemon juice freshly squeezed
- ½ oz simple syrup
- 2 oz sparkling water approx (or soda water; can use more/less as you prefer)
Instructions
- Add some ice to a cocktail shaker and add in the sloe gin, lemon and simple syrup. Cover with the lid and shake well to chill.
- Place a few ice cubes in a Collins (tall) glass and strain the lemon-sloe gin mixture into the glass. Top up with soda/sparkling water and either serve as it is to look slightly more layered, or gently stir to mix first.

Notes
- You can increase the lemon to 1oz/30ml and decrease the simple syrup a little if you prefer a slightly more tart drink. You can also switch the lemon for grapefruit as in what is apparently the original, and shake with 1 egg white as well for more of a foamy finish.
