Mustapha Cocktail
Tuesday, December 11th, 2007- 1 1/2 oz. gin
- 1/2 oz creme de casis
- 1/4 oz fresh lime juice (not syrup, please - it’s sweet enough already!)
- 1 egg white
- a generous dash or two of Tabasco Sauce
Shake with plenty of ice and strain, serve up.
This is a surprisingly tasty cocktail and has been featured frequently since its discovery while trying to find something to mix with the bottle of Gabriel Boudier Dijon Creme de Cassis that we picked up. We like it on the hot side. The Tabasco balances out the sweetness of the creme de cassis which would otherwise be overpowering.
