Ingredients

2 oz London Dry Gin
1/2 oz fresh lemon juice
1/4 oz elderflower liqueur
1 tsp simple syrup
3 oz club soda
for garnish lemon twist

Instructions

Step 1: In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz London Dry Gin, 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice, 1/4 oz elderflower liqueur, and 1 tsp simple syrup with ice; shake vigorously for 15 seconds until well-chilled and frothy.
Step 2: Strain into a chilled coupe glass filled with ice cubes, then top with 3 oz club soda and gently stir once to integrate carbonation without losing effervescence.
Step 3: Express the oils of a lemon twist by holding it over the drink and twisting to release aromatic oils, then drop the twist into the glass as a garnish.
