Serves 1

The Alfred Tennyson, a gastro pub located in Belgravia, share their peachy take an old fashioned.

Find the recipe for their homemade peach and basic syrup here.

Ingredients

50ml Gin (pick one with robust flavours)
20ml Peach & Basil Syrup (15ml if you prefer your old fashioned less sweet)
4 dashes of Angostura Bitters (not necessary but adds a different level to the drink)

Method

1

Fill a whisky glass with ice

2

Add the syrup and then the gin and stir to combine

3

Add a few dashes of bitters and stir a bit more in order to dilute the drink

4

Once the volume of the drink has lifted up slightly it is ready. Don’t stir too long or you’ll water it down

5

Garnish with lemon peel (squeeze it gently into the glass to sprinkle it with citrus oils) and a slice of peach
