Try a Cape Samurai if you're in the mood for a culinary cocktail with a kick. This spicy libation is the brainchild of Li Ya Nan of the Mango Tree in London and features a great vodka in Cape North with a little rose, lime, ginger and wasabi. Yes, the spicy, hot green wasabi is the key ingredient for this fantastic cocktail, but it is tamed down to be palatable (and drinkable) by the other ingredients.
Ingredients:
- 25 ml fresh lime juice
- 50 ml Cape North Vodka
- 20 ml rose syrup
- 4 pickled ginger
- half a barspoon of green wasabi
Preparation:
- Muddle the ginger and wasabi in a mixing glass.
- Add the other ingredients and ice.
- Shake well.
- Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
