30ml Gold Mauritius rum
30ml White sambuca
30ml Lemon juice
15ml Lime juice
15ml Sugar syrup
30ml Aquafaba*
2ds Black walnut bitters
1 Pinch salt
Dry shake as with egg white, then ice the shaker and shake long and hard. Double strain into a cocktail glass.
*Soak 500g of dry chickpeas in a large pan for 24 hours, keeping the water topped up above the level of the beans. Bring the pan to the boil and simmer for 1 hour, then leave to cool. Leave to soak for another 24 hours, then strain out all the solids. Makes approximately 1 litre.
