The Covent Garden Hotel's Saketini – Recipe

To try something unique, sample this refined martini-inspired drink. It’s light, aromatic and sippable, and pairs nicely with a few chunks of parmesan.

Saketini

Makes a single portion

30ml gin – a quality London dry gin is ideal

15ml Lillet Blanc – a floral and citrus aperitif

15ml sake – select a smooth, medium-bodied variety

Pour the gin, Lillet Blanc, and sake into a shaker, include a generous scoop of ice and stir thoroughly for 30 seconds to cool. Filter into a pre-chilled martini glass and present.
