An extract of cardamom, lemon and ginger lifts a nice dry gin considerably in this twist on the classic gin fizz. Serve chilled and enjoy on a hot day. If you can get cardamom pods, use the whole pod in your infusion for an even brighter floral note.
Ingredients
2 oz gin
1 oz vodka
1 teaspoon whole cardamom
½ inch of ginger, thinly sliced
Peel from ½ a lemon
Soda water to top

Add the vodka, whole cardamom, sliced ginger, and lemon peel, and securely attach the head.
2. Charge

3. Shake and rest
