Join us as we explore the fascinating world of forgotten classic cocktails with gin! In today's episode, our resident mixologist Lukas delves into the history and revival of the iconic Hanky Panky cocktail. Created by legendary barmaid Ada "Coley" Coleman for Sir Charles Hawtrey in the early 20th century, this timeless libation has enchanted cocktail enthusiasts for generations.

But Lukas isn't content with simply revisiting the past – he's determined to give this classic cocktail a contemporary twist that caters to modern tastes and trends. With meticulous attention to detail and a focus on premium ingredients, he selects Crafter’s Aromatic Flower Gin for its delicate floral notes and citrus undertones, perfectly complemented by the complex flavors of Amaro Montenegro and a dash of Orange bitters.

For the original Hanky Panky cocktail, Lukáš follows the traditional recipe, combining
- 30 ml of Plymouth Gin
- 30 ml of Punt e Mes
- barspoon of Fernet Branca
After a gentle stir, the cocktail is garnished with an orange twist, ensuring a harmonious balance of flavors.

Watch as Lukas demonstrates the art of cocktail craftsmanship, employing a technique known as rolling to aerate and harmonize the flavors. And to elevate the Hanky Panky experience even further, he introduces a stunning caviar made from dry vermouth, adding visual and gustatory delight to this iconic drink.
