Leave to infuse overnight then filter out the peppercorns using a fine muslin cloth. 2 For the lychee syrup, weigh the lychees and add the same weight of water. Tip into a high-powered blender and whizz until smooth, then pour through a fine sieve set over a bowl. Weigh the lychee liquid and add the same weight of caster sugar, then stir to dissolve. 3 To make the cocktail, measure out all of the ingredients for the cocktail into a shaker. Fill with ice and shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds. Strain into a chilled martini glass and garnish with a strip of lime peel, gently twisting over the drink to release the oils. cook’s notes This will make more lychee syrup than you’ll need but will keep in the fridge for a week. It’ll also make more sansho vodka than you’ll need and this will keep almost indefinitely. 64 July 2021 Omagazine.com July 2021 Omagazine.com 65 discover eat in, eat out Everything strawberry and cheesecake
