Brasserie Max's Saketini – Recipe

For something a little unexpected, sample this refined martini-inspired drink. It is delicate, fragrant and easy to sip, and matches wonderfully with parmesan chunks.

Sake Martini

Yields one serving

30ml gin – a quality London dry gin is ideal

15ml Lillet Blanc – an aromatic French aperitif wine

15ml sake – preferably a delicate, balanced sake

Pour the gin, Lillet Blanc, and sake into a shaker, add a big handful of ice cubes and stir thoroughly for 30 seconds to cool. Filter into a pre-chilled martini glass and present.

An elegant drink blending East and West
