Ruby's Rose Garden - Empress Gin Cocktail

I LOVE Empress Gin.

Ruby's Rose Garden

2oz Empress Gin

1oz lemon juice 

1oz rhubarb syrup *

A dash of rose water

1oz chickpea water (or egg white) 

Dry shake in a cocktail shaker, then shake again over ice. Pour into a chilled coupe glass and garnish with rose petals and a twist of rhubarb. 

* chop 5 stalks of rhubarb into small chunks and heat over a hob with 1 cup of water. Once the water has bodied, stir in one cup of sugar. Stew the rhubarb in the sugar water for 5-10 minutes on low heat. Decant and leave overnight, then strain out the pulp the next day.

Matching your outfit to your drink is totally optional, but I was totally here for it!
