AdInstructions
- Muddle the physalis fruits in the bottom of a shaker.
- Add the orange juice, vodka, lime juice, star anise and sage syrup, lemon juice and dark rum.
- Dip in a bar spoon and taste. Adjust the amount of homemade syrup to match how sweet or sharp the physalis are, aiming for balanced sweetness and acidity with clear anise and only a hint of sage, just as in the syrup itself.
- Add the cocktail foamer and reverse shake: shake with ice, strain out the ice, then shake again without ice to build the foam.
- Pour into a coupe.
- Garnish with a whole physalis or a slice of physalis. If you like, grate a little lemon zest over the foam.
