COCKTAIL RECIPES
PUD PUD Gins (Puddingstone Pudding Gins) are primarily our Christmas gins based around a gin we distill using Christmas pudding ingredients. Along with the regular PUD PUD Gin we use the base gin to create different expressions such as PUD PUD Cask (gin is rested in port infused ex-bourbon casks), PUD PUD Cherry (gin macerated with fresh, locally grown Horwood Cherries) and summer edition PUD PUD Cacao (a distillation of cacao nibs blended with original PUD PUD Gin adding notes of chocolate).
PUD PUD Cherry Gin forms the base of two of our favourite after dinner cocktails – White Herts (our version of a White Russian switching the vodka for PUD PUD Cherry Gin) and Black Forest (think Black Forest Gateaux in a glass!).
PEAR PUDDING
History
The first cocktail created by Kate specifically for our PUD PUD seasonal gin. Combining the sweet but subtle nature of pear juice, the fruitiness of cranberry bitters and rich spicy, juniper characteristics of PUD PUD.
Egg white does not impart any flavour but adds a lovely smooth foamy texture, just follow the instructions on “dry shaking” for the perfect serve.
Ingredients
25ml Puddingstone Pudding Gin (PUD PUD)
50ml Pear juice
Cranberry bitters
½ medium sized Egg (white only)
Preparation
Add gin, pear juice, a couple of dashes of cranberry bitters and egg white to a cocktail shaker. Dry shake (no ice) for 30 seconds. Add ice and shake again for 20 seconds to chill and dilute. Strain into a chilled martini or coupe glass.
