SHEZEN Real Shiso

How To Make

  1. Prepare the glass: Smoke a rocks glass with applewood chips using a torch or light chip with lighter. Cover the glass to trap the smoke while you make the cocktail.
  2. Build the drink: Fill a shaker halfway with ice. Add all ingredients (omit tequila and soda for the low-proof version; add tequila for the high-proof version). Shake vigorously until well chilled.
    Remove the cover from the smoked glass, fill with ice, then immediately strain the cocktail inside.
  3. Finish: For the high-proof version, top with a splash of soda water. For the low-proof version, serve as is. Garnish (optional): A shiso leaf clipped.
  4. Kanpai!
