The Banana Calling cocktail is a short, concise drink best described as a “Banana & Fino Sherry Gin Sour.” The Sherry and banana notes are subtle—so subtle, in fact, that you wouldn’t immediately identify it as a banana cocktail, even though the name gives it away.

INGREDIENTS

• 40 ml / 1 ⅓ oz. dry Gin
• 10 ml/ ⅓ oz. Crème de banane liqueur
• 7,5 ml/ ¼ oz. Sherry
• 20 ml/ ⅔ oz freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 7,5 ml/ ¼ oz. sugar syrup

METHOD

1. Add all ingredients into a shaker with ice and shake.
2. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
3. Garnish with dried banana chip pegged to rim, or fresh banana slice on the rim.
