Preparation time

Yuzu Snow is an elegant and festive cocktail, ideal for toasting the New Year or any special occasion. Its base of junmai sake or Japanese gin pairs perfectly with the tangy freshness of yuzu and the subtle sweetness of honey or ginger syrup. For a light and airy texture, the optional egg white adds a delicate foam that enhances the tasting experience. The cocktail is then topped up with sparkling prosecco or yuzu soda for the non-alcoholic version, creating a slightly frosty, refreshing and visually refined drink. Decorated with a twist of yuzu or a sprig of frosted rosemary, this cocktail surprises with its perfect balance of acidity, sweetness and effervescence.

4 cl of junmai sake (or Japanese gin if you prefer a stronger cocktail)

1 tsp honey or ginger syrup

6 cl of prosecco or yuzu soda (for the non-alcoholic version)
-
1 egg white (optional, for foam and texture)
-

Recipe notes
Perfect foam: for a lighter result, first shake the egg white dry before adding the ice cubes.
Non-alcoholic version: Replace the sake and yuzu liqueur with fresh yuzu juice and sparkling soda for an equally elegant mocktail.
Homemade syrup: prepare a simple honey-ginger syrup for a more intense aromatic touch.
Prepare in advance: you can prepare the sake, yuzu, and syrup mixture and shake it just before serving to preserve its freshness and foam.
Festive presentation: add a finely chopped yuzu zest or a small sprig of frosted rosemary for a spectacular visual effect at a festive dinner.
