Mooses's Queen's Day Shot Recipe: The Green Devil

3 cl of Bombay Sapphire Gin
3 cl of green Chartreuse (not the yellow one)

Shake well with ice, strain into a shot glass (and you do keep them in your freezer, don´t you?), shoot!
This one is best in one go, believe me.

The herbal elixiers of Chartreuse give this shot a very distinctive taste. You either like it or hate it. The Green Devil has an extra benefit: the following morning you will not need any toothpaste, your mouth will foam of lovely herbal lather by itself.

BTW, the colour of green Chartreuse is purely natural. All other green ones are artificially coloured.


Mooses says: Shake, Rattle and do some Extreme Ironing!

Love to try this one out. Let's do a fridge check first though. Ok, glass - Check. Icecubes - Check. Bombay Sapphire Gin - Not there, closest I have is applejuice, so let's use that instead. Chartreuse - Not there as well, and have no idea what it is. But looking at the picture it is something green, so washing fluid will do nicely. Stir a bit and there you go: The clean devil. For kids who just can't stop swearing.
