Ikonoclast Instructions
The Ikonoclast cocktail is a refreshing and vibrant drink that combines the flavors of citrus and herbs. This cocktail is perfect for those who enjoy a tangy and zesty taste.
To make an Ikonoclast cocktail, begin by preparing your cocktail glass. Fill it with ice to chill the glass while you make the drink.
In a shaker, combine freshly squeezed lemon juice, lime juice, and a splash of simple syrup. Simple syrup is a mixture of sugar and water that adds sweetness to the drink without altering the flavor too much.
Next, add a few sprigs of fresh mint to the shaker. The mint will infuse the cocktail with a refreshing and aromatic taste.
Now, it's time to add the star of the show - the gin. Pour a generous amount of gin into the shaker, depending on your preference for a stronger or milder drink. Gin adds a botanical aroma and flavor to the cocktail.
Finally, give the shaker a good shake to mix all the ingredients together and let the flavors meld. Strain the cocktail into your chilled glass, being careful to not let any ice or mint leaves into the glass.
Garnish your Ikonoclast cocktail with a sprig of mint and a slice of lemon or lime for an extra touch of freshness. Serve the cocktail and enjoy its bright and invigorating flavors.
The Ikonoclast cocktail is perfect for any occasion, whether you're hosting a summer party or simply want to relax with a delicious drink after a long day. Its tangy and herbal notes will surely impress your guests and leave you wanting more.

The Ikonoclast cocktail is a modern take on the classic Negroni, with a few key twists that make it stand out from the crowd. This refreshing and sophisticated drink has gained popularity in recent years for its unique flavor profile and stylish presentation.
Origins of the Ikonoclast Cocktail
The Ikonoclast cocktail was created by renowned mixologist Tony Conigliaro at his award-winning bar, 69 Colebrooke Row, in London. Conigliaro is known for his innovative approach to cocktails and has been credited with revolutionizing the craft cocktail scene.
Inspired by the traditional Negroni, which consists of equal parts gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth, Conigliaro set out to create a more complex and layered version of this beloved drink. The result was the Ikonoclast cocktail – a bold and sophisticated concoction that pays homage to its predecessor while adding new dimensions of flavor.
