Shika's Palm Wine Refresher

Shika's Palm Wine Refresher

We all love a simple cocktail recipe, right? Well it doesn’t get any easier than this. You only need 3 ingredients to blow you off your feet, literally.

Pace yourself with this one. It sneaks up on you.


Ingredients

4 cups very chilled palm win

1 cup of your favourite gin ( non flavoured) — you can use more

1/3 to 1/2 freshly squeezed lime juice + extra lime slices to garnish

Directions

Combine all the ingredients except the lime juice in a pitcher.

Add the juice a bit at time until you reach desired taste. If too tart add a bit more palm wine. If too sweet, add more lime juice.

Serve over lots of ice and garnish with the lime slices.

You can make up to a day ahead and include your favourite fresh herb. This works perfectly with nunum, basil, and akoko besa. Discard the fresh herbs right before serving.
