Brasserie Max's Saketini – Recipe

For something a little unexpected, enjoy this sophisticated cocktail. It is delicate, fragrant and easy to sip, and matches wonderfully with parmesan chunks.

Japanese-Inspired Martini

Serves 1

30ml gin – a quality London dry gin is ideal

15ml Lillet Blanc – an aromatic French aperitif wine

15ml sake – a light, medium-bodied one, ideally

Pour the gin, Lillet Blanc, and sake into a shaker, include a generous scoop of ice and stir for 30 seconds to chill well. Strain into a well-chilled martini glass and serve.
