Discover our Fyne and Dandy

Our Red Door Fyne and Dandy is a fresh, herbal cocktail, combining aromatic dill with tart citrus and bitters. Seasoned with salt and a twist of pepper for a subtle hint of heat, it’s perfect for cold weather.

Ingredients

50ml Red Door Highland Gin with Winter Botanicals
20ml fresh lemon juice
2 grinds of salt and pepper
2 dashes of dandelion and burdock bitters (optional)
20ml dill syrup*
2-3cm of cucumber (peeled and chopped)

Method

Add the cucumber and dill syrup to the base of a cocktail shaker and muddle to a puree. Add all other ingredients with ice to the shaker and shake vigorously. Fine strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a slice of cucumber, sprig of dill, and a grind of pepper.

* To make dill syrup, combine a cup of sugar and half a cup of water in a small saucepan. Turn up to a medium heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add a handful of dill and simmer for 10 minutes. Take off the heat and leave to cool for an hour or two. Strain the syrup into an empty bottle and keep in the fridge for up to 6 weeks.
