The Grand Tour

Glass: Martini
Garnish: Mint leaf
Method: Stir all ingredients except the prosecco with ice, and strain into a chilled martini glass. Top with prosecco.
Ingredients:
10ml Bombay Sapphire gin
40ml Tuaca
2ml Campari
3 mint leaves
20ml of prosecco
Notes: too much prosecco will kill this drink, likewise too much Campari. If you have no prosecco, champagne will do, I suppose.
Credits: created by myself for a Tuaca competition, May 2007.
