Cocktail of the week: Society Manchester’s Salford fog – recipe | The good mixer
The Guardian Food's 'Cocktail of the week' features the 'Salford fog,' a refreshing gin-based cocktail created by Lucy Bryant from Society Manchester. This drink is a creative Mancunian interpretation of two classic British gin cocktails: the 'English garden' and the 'London fog.' It combines gin (with a recommendation for local Salford Distillery's gin, though any well-balanced, citrus-forward dry gin will suffice), Earl Grey tea, elderflower liqueur, and honey. Described as lightly floral and perfectly suited for outdoor enjoyment on a warm day, the recipe highlights a trend of local sourcing and innovative mixology, offering a contemporary twist on traditional British flavors.
