Strawberry Zing Recipe

 

Follow along with Big Zuu, YouTube star, grime artist and self-taught food truck chef, on how to make one of our favourite tipples – the Strawberry Zing cocktail.

A refreshingly fruity blend of strawberries, lemongrass and gin. Just add sunshine, or Big Zuu!

 

For the cocktail

35ml gin of your choice

100ml strawberry-lemongrass mixture

Ice

For the strawberry-lemongrass mixture

100g strawberries

1 lemongrass stalk, bruised

Garnish

Slice of orange

1 strawberry

  1. Fill a tumbler glass with ice cubes to keep it nice and cool.
  2. To make the strawberry-lemongrass mixture, add a punnet of strawberries and one lemongrass stalk to a blender until smooth.
  3. Add some ice to a cocktail shaker, then pour in gin and the strawberry-lemongrass mixture.
  4. Shake it like a polaroid picture, or until it’s nice and mixed.
  5. Strain the cocktail into the tumbler glass filled with ice. Use a muddler or a spoon to push through any large pulpy bits!
  6. Garnish with a slice of orange and strawberry, take a sip & enjoy!
