Batched French 75 Recipe:

Featuring Still Austin Gin

Makes 4-6 cocktails at a time according to your pours

Ingredients:

6 oz of Gin

1 bottle of your choice of Champagne or Sparkling, (my choice is Boy Toy by FRUITBLOOD)

2 Tablespoons of lime zest

4 oz seared lime simple syrup

Seared lime recipe:

Ingredients:

1/2 cup water

1/4 cup sugar

1/3 cup Jaggery

2 limes - sliced into circles

1 cardamom pod, opened

In a hot cast iron, sear the limes on each side and set aside.

In a small pot, add your water, sugar, and Jaggery and let the mixture boil. Lower your heat and add in your limes and let the mixture slowly thicken until you have a slightly thick syrup. Let it cool and strain the limes, store in a glass jar in your fridge.
