      Title: Henry's Flora Dora
 Categories: Beverage, Booze, Citrus, Fruits, Beer
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
      4 oz Lime juice
      8 oz Gin
      2 oz Cointreau or Triple Sec
      2 oz Crème de Framboise
      1 oz Cointreau
      2 oz Raspberry syrup
     12 oz Ginger beer; chilled
           Cocktail glasses; chilled
           Ice
           Cocktail shaker
           Raspberries
 
  Chill your glasses. You can stick them into the freezer
  if you have room - perhaps not if they’re your
  great-great-grandfather’s finest heirlooms but if
  they’re IKEA basic (which are excellent) 15 minutes in
  the freezer will be fine. Otherwise fill them up with
  ice cubes and chuck the ice away before serving.
  
  Cut the limes in half using a Dexam Forest and Forge
  knife with horse chestnut handle and a vintage chopping
  board. Squeeze the limes using a citrus juicer.
  
  Now for the rocket fuel. Use a jigger to measure out the
  ingredients but don’t worry if it’s not exactly the
  right amount. A bit of tolerance is essential in
  cocktail making.
  
  Add the gin (no need for anything fancy) and the
  Cointreau. Now you need something sweet to slightly
  offset the limes’ sharpness. If you have Crème de
  Framboise use that. If not, you could use sugar syrup,
  or some honey. The raspberry syrup will make it sweeter
  too as well as boosting the gorgeous pink colour - if
  you can’t find any in a shop, try making it yourself,
  it’s very simple - just water, sugar, raspberries and a
  dash of lemon juice.
  
  Now get some big chunky ice cubes. Dexam’s pop-in /
  pop-out ice tray produces some excellent-sized cubes.
  Put half a dozen into your bullet cocktail shaker and
  shake medium-vigorously half a dozen times.
  
  Strain the ice cubes, pour the rocket fuel into the
  chilled glasses so they’re roughly two thirds full then
  top up with ginger beer. Add some fresh raspberries on a
  cocktail stick as decoration - delicious to suck once
  they’ve soaked up some fuel.
