Cocktail of the week with Fabrizio Musorella

Lucky Summer
You may not have a cocktail cabinet home, but that doesn’t mean you can’t prepare and present your cocktails with flair. A couple of classic Martini glasses, highball glasses and a cocktail shaker and you’re in business. Shakers come in many different shapes and sizes. Personally I suggest for amateurs the three-part stainless steel shaker with a built-in strainer. Always shake for about ten seconds and more sharply if the cocktail contains fresh cream. Do not shake fizzy drinks and have your glasses ready and chilled. Now what are you waiting for? Get mixing and Salute!

Ingredients
3cl Scotch whisky
3cl Cointreau
4cl fresh orange juice
1.5cl fresh lemon juice
Dash Grenadine
Preparation
Pour all the ingredients into a shaker filled with ice. Shake. Strain into an old-fashioned glass filled with ice. Garnish with wedge of orange.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
