#59 Cocktail: British Squirrel

  The Squirrels are a new type of drink, that are similar to the sours and which have in the recipes creme de noyau , a pink almond flavored liqueur
    In 2002, Gaz Regan was asked by a friend to make a drink "on the sweeter side" and he combined vodka with creme de noyau and lemon juice. From then on, he started to substitute in some of the sour drinks, the triple sec with creme de noyau and so a new category was borne
    The definition of the squirrel is a drink with a base spirit, lemon or lime juice and creme de noyau or any other nut-flavored liqueur

1 1/2 ounce gin

3/4 creme de noyau

3/2 lime juice
