TikTok cocktail?  Finally!  Finally something sensible!

TikTok cocktails? TikiI know cocktails… but from TikTok I mainly know questionable food recipes that often turn out to be complete disasters. And… yes, now that I think about it, there were also drink trends that originated on TikTok. Espresso with orange juice, for example. There was something:

That was then; now is today. And a message from Emily comes to me without comment:

@ali.eclectic the signature drink in my barbie mansion 🩷 You can also add soda or tonic at the end!! #cocktail #easycocktail #drinkrecipe ♬ A day in my life – Gentle boy

“The signature drink at my Barbie mansion”…okay and Why, dear Emily, would I like one of those pink sweet drinks? You know, I love cocktail classics – Dry Martini, Old Fashioned and Co. – and not of citrusy sweet frills.

But hey, it’s a job. Someone has to do it. There is one today Gin’n’Jam cocktail! It goes like this:

6 ml gin
Juice of half a lemon
1 tbsp strawberry or raspberry jam
1 wheel dried orange or 1 piece lemon peel, for garnish
Add gin, lemon juice and jam to a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake vigorously. Pour the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass and combine with a little lemon or orange zest.

And so it was:

And? AND?

Hey It’s…

…damn right, just in case.

Well, unlike the TikTok lady, I used candied strawberries instead of raspberries, but I doubt my judgment would have been different. In fact, the generous addition of fresh lemon juice perfectly balances the sweetness of the jam. And the preparation is so simple! I think I found a new cocktail for dinner!

(According to Swiss school grades: 6 is the best grade, 1 is the worst, 4 is sufficient.)

Point average: 3.6
So there would be a 3-4 on the report. No. Still insufficient, dear TikTok.
