Istanbul is a cocktail: a fine mix of styles, the new and the old. Müzedechanga, a pioneering restaurant of the new Turkish cuisine, has created a raki cocktail named after the city. It’s best enjoyed on their terrace overlooking the Bosphorus. Thank you to Tarik Beyazit for passing it on to me.
Ingredients
½ 20 ml 1 fl oz
Method
Use a pestle to crush the pieces of mandarin with the sugar syrup in a cocktail shaker. Add the vodka, raki, lemon juice and a big handful of crushed ice. Close the shaker, shake vigorously and serve in a pretty glass.
