This is the first time ever we are using redcurrants in a drink. The berries are used both as a muddled ingredient in the actual cocktail, and then also as a pearl-like garnish. Their sweet-and-sour flavour is phenomenal, and it really takes this drink to the next level. Then combined with the thick and exotic tasting guava juice, a rather unique cocktail is born.
