CHRISTMAS 2019 - THE 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS SONG

The Sixth Day of Christmas



Seventh Day of Christmas

On the Sixth Day of Christmas.... 🎶


As the song goes, today my true love gave to me six geese a-laying!


With all those eggs, an Eggnog-style cocktail seemed the obvious choice. This is a gin-based festive twist, served in a coupe and topped with cinnamon and a dried orange wheel. Creamy, warming and suitably indulgent — although thankfully without having to find six geese first!


SIX GEESE A-LAYING 🪿


40ml gin

20ml coffee liqueur

20ml cream

15ml sugar syrup

1 egg yolk

A pinch of cinnamon


Dry shake all the ingredients first, then shake again with ice. Double strain into a chilled coupe and garnish with a dusting of cinnamon and a dried orange wheel.


A little bit of Christmas in a glass! 🎄
