2021 is finally here!
After what, to most of us, is the end of a tough year and the beginning of a new one, I think it's high time we all celebrated the end of 2020.
If you are looking for a really great way to celebrate, we think this cocktail pretty much is a celebration in a glass.
Latte Martini by Siúcra & Catherine Fulvio
(Makes 1)
Ingredients
For the sugar syrup
100g Siucra Caster Sugar
150ml water
30ml vodka
1 espresso coffee shot
30ml cream
4 tbsp of ice
4 raspberries
Siucra Granulated Sugar for the glass and raspberries

Large rosemary sprig
Method
To prepare the sugar syrup
1. Pour the sugar and water into a saucepan and bring to the boil, reduce the heat, simmer for about 6 to 7 minutes until a light syrup forms.
2. Leave to cool completely. This will keep in your fridge for 2 to 3 weeks.
To decorate the glass
1. Dip a small brush into the egg white and brush around the rim of the glass, dip the glass into the granulated sugar and leave to dry.
To serve
1. Thread 3 or 4 raspberries onto a long rosemary sprig and brush the berries with egg white, sprinkle with the granulated sugar and set aside.
2. Once cold, add 3 tbsp of the sugar syrup into a shaker, add the vodka, espresso coffee shot and cream and plenty of ice.
3. Shake well and strain into the martini glass. Place the raspberry rosemary sprig on the side and enjoy.
