Wipe Out

In order to enjoy this cocktail, you need to have the right genes. Yes, you heard that correctly. The star of the drink is cilantro, better known as coriander, which has a highly polarising effect on people—you either can’t stand it, or you absolutely love its flavour. Several studies have shown that a specific gene variant is responsible for this preference, causing cilantro to smell and taste like soap or detergent to some people, while others find it fresh, citrusy and appealing.

Wipe Out cocktail is our elevated, richer version of a classic Moscow Mule cocktail. Vodka is replaced with Parson old tom style Cosy gin, where notes of ginger and other winter spices enhance characteristic spicy notes and blend perfectly with must have ingredient – ginger beer. 

 Ingredients

Coriander foam:

  • 300 g fresh coriander
  • 300 g super juice
  • 225 g cane sugar
  • 300 g liquid egg white

 

DECORATION:
The beautiful coriander foam on top perfectly highlights the cocktail.

PREPARATION:
Pour gin, super juice and honey syrup into a chilled shaker and shake well. Double strain into a glass without ice, top up with ginger beer and garnish with the previously prepared coriander foam.

Coriander foam: In a blender, combine coriander, super juice and sugar syrup, then blitz for 1 minute on maximum speed. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer, squeezing out all the remaining liquid, and add the egg white. Once combined, transfer the mixture to an iSi siphon, charge with 2 cream chargers (N₂O) and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before use.

FLAVOURS:
An incredibly rich, aromatic and refreshing cocktail. The first sip bursts with herbal notes, provided by the pungent taste of coriander. Typical of a Mule cocktail, ginger beer adds a spicy kick, which is further enhanced by the winter spices in Cosy gin. The apple in the gin pairs well with the freshness of lemon and coriander, while the sugar cane provides a mild sweetness, balancing the acidity of the lemon and the spiciness of the ginger.
