The Covent Garden Hotel's Saketini – Cocktail Guide

For something a little unexpected, enjoy this sophisticated cocktail. This beverage is airy, scented and drinkable, and matches wonderfully with parmesan chunks.

Japanese-Inspired Martini

Makes a single portion

30ml gin – a quality London dry gin is ideal

15ml Lillet Blanc – an aromatic French aperitif wine

15ml sake – preferably a delicate, balanced sake

Measure the gin, Lillet Blanc and sake into a shaker, add a big handful of ice cubes and stir thoroughly for 30 seconds to cool. Strain into a well-chilled martini glass and serve.
