This super refreshing, summery drink combines the flavor of elderflower with the bitterness of Campari, then force-carbonates it in an iSi siphon for an extra powerful fizz.

Gin and Tonic’d Elderflower
White Lyan | London, UK
Ingredients
Servings: 3 to 4
- 5 1/3 ounces gin
- 2/3 ounce elderflower liqueur, preferably St-Germain
- 2 2/3 ounces Campari
- 13 1/3 ounces water
Garnish: mint sprig, orange half-wheel
Directions
- Add all ingredients to an iSi soda siphon (be sure that the thin interior tube is removed) and charge.
- Shake the canister, then place it in the refrigerator for at least two hours, or preferably, overnight.
- With the canister upright, very slowly release the pressure by pressing down the lever. (Do this a little bit at a time over the course of half an hour or so, storing in the fridge in between.)
- Carefully open the top of the cannister and pour the drink into a highball glass over cubed ice.
- Garnish with a mint sprig and an orange half-wheel.
