During our recent trip to Malta this summer I was delighted to see my favourite cocktail the Maltese Falcon was still on the menu at 120 Bar. A sharp, citrusy drink made with the local liqueur Bajtra which gives it a delicate pink colour. Here's how it's made....
Ingredients:
1 measure Vodka (I freeze mine to make it extra syrupy)
1 measure Bajtra
1 measure Limocello (or any lemon liqueur)
Lemonade
Ice
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.....
....and then pour in the Vodka, Bajtra and Limoncello. Shake vigorously until well frosted and strain into a cocktail glass. Top up with lemonade to taste.
Et Voila!
Enjoy!

Looks pretty. Always wanted to visit Malta. Is the Bajtra available in the U.S?
ReplyDeleteThere are a few useful sites online where you can order Bajtra (and various other Mediterranean treats!) - I will have a Useful Links section up and running soon but off the top of my head here's a couple you could check out:
