White Rose Cocktail
The white rose is a symbol of the UK county of Yorkshire, and, whilst any classic gin would work here, one from Yorkshire (such as Masons Yorkshire Gin, Cooper King Gin and Whittaker’s Gin) is especially fitting.

Serves 1
Ingredients
25ml Whittaker’s London Dry Gin
25ml white port
25ml dry vermouth
3 dashes orange bitters
1 lemon (for garnish)
Method
To make a ‘citrus rose’ for the drink garnish, peel a long strip of lemon peel with a vegetable peeler and then roll into a circle, securing with a cocktail stick. Set aside.
Add the ingredients to an ice-filled mixing glass and stir vigorously. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass and garnish with the citrus rose to serve.
