A Disaronno take on the spicy bitch. If I were making it with vodka I might add a little sugar syrup, but Disaronno is sweet and we’re topping up with ginger beer, so I don’t – make it to your taste. Disaronno and ginger are a marriage made in heaven.
Serves 1
Ingredients
- A couple of slices of fresh chilli
- 50ml Disaronno
- 20ml lime juice
- A couple of drops of bitters
- Plenty of ice
- Ginger beer, to top up
- Spicy salt (salt mixed with chilli) and a wedge of lime, for the rim
- Lime or a slice of chilli, to garnish
Method
- Put the chilli in a cocktail shaker with the Disaronno and lime juice, and muddle gently to release the heat.
- Add the bitters and plenty of ice and give it a jolly good shake.
- Run a wedge of lime round the rim of a glass and dip it in the spicy salt.
- Strain the cocktail into the glass, top up with ginger beer and garnish with lime or a slice of chilli.
Tip: Make your own spicy salt by mixing sea salt with chilli flakes or chilli powder.
