Directions
The Clover Club cocktail is a direct drink with an elegant flavor, all played on hints of the forest. Juniper and resins mix with raspberry syrup, with lemon juice that acts as a binder and refreshes everything.
Fallen by now into oblivion, the Clover Club is a cocktail to be rediscovered and savored without delay, thanks to its splendid aromatic qualities.
It is the classic aperitif, to be drunk at all hours: with its gracefulness and not too high alcohol content it will keep you company from sunset to dawn without blinking.
The history of the Clover Club is relatively recent, it was born in the early 1900s and after a global success, it slowly slipped into oblivion, until in 2012 the Iba did include it in the list of its classic cocktails.
But we have not yet talked about the particularity of the Clover Club cocktail, which is the presence of albumen among the ingredients, such as for Pisco Sour and Ramos gin Fizz.
To put the album or not it will be up to you to decide. If it is true that it adds a splendid foam on the mirror of the cocktail, the smell of the album is not pleasing to all, indeed, at the olfactory level, it is an annoying obstacle. Try both versions and then draw your conclusions. Or you can use acquafaba.
