Highland Aperitif

Impress at your dinner party with this classic aperitif - by Barbara Northwood
  • 27 Mar 2019
Highland Aperitif
Prep: 5 Minutes - easy - Serves 2
Proudly supported by

Casita Andina’s much-loved cocktail is a refreshing tipple for any time of the day. The herb and lime marmalade on the rim ensures a sweet entrance before a zesty passion-fruit kick and the hit of aromatic Torontel grape pisco.

Ingredients

100ml Torontel grape pisco

60ml passion fruit juice

25ml sugar syrup or 3 tbsp yacon syrup

200ml tonic water

Aronia or blueberry juice (optional)

For the huacatay-lime marmalade

8–10 huacatay leaves, or a couple of leaves each of mint, parsley, coriander and tarragon, finely chopped

4 tbsp lime marmalade

Method

  1. First, make the huacatay-lime marmalade. Blitz the herbs with the lime marmalade in a mini-processor (or in a small bowl using a stick blender) until as smooth as possible. Set aside.

  2. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the pisco, passion fruit juice and syrup. Shake for at least 30 seconds.

  3. Rim 2 old-fashioned glasses with the huacatay-lime marmalade.

  4. Strain half the mixture into each glass, then top up the glasses with the tonic water. Add a dash of aronia or blueberry juice, if using, and serve immediately.
