SUMMER GOLD Presented by Sthembiso Shobede, Bever

SUMMER GOLD
Presented by Sthembiso Shobede, Beverly Hills

50 ml ClemenGold Gin
50 ml infused rooibos tea
25 ml LemonGold juice
25 ml Butler Curaçao
25 ml sparkling wine
1 egg

Glassware: Champagne
Garnish: 1 dried orange ring and orange zest

Steep rooibos tea in hot water for about 5-7 minutes. Allow it to cool completely, then strain.
In a cocktail shaker, add ClemenGold Gin, infused rooibos tea, LemonGold juice, Butler Curaçao, and egg white.

Dry Shake: First, shake the mixture without ice for about 10-15 seconds. This helps to aerate the egg white and create a frothy texture.

Wet Shake: Add ice to the shaker and shake again for another 10-15 seconds to chill the cocktail.

Strain: Double strain the mixture into a chilled champagne glass to ensure a smooth texture.

Carefully top the drink with sparkling wine, allowing it to gently mix with the cocktail base.

Garnish with a dried orange ring and sprinkle orange zest over drink.

Lungile Mkhize (Barista) The Beverly Hills

“The hospitality industry relies on visionary leadership to drive growth, innovation, and success. It offers opportunities to explore, access information, and gain knowledge both nationally and internationally. My role model is my mother. She used to cater for various events and would take me along to assist in preparing meals. My long-term goal is to own an academy where I can provide training for baristas, specialising in coffee. I regularly watch international barista videos on YouTube to gain more knowledge about coffee,” says Lungile

Superb bread presentation by Sohail Seegobin (Bake

Superb bread presentation by Sohail Seegobin (Baker) The Beverly Hills

Farm style whole wheat bread with whole wheat kernels, buttery brioche and rustic sourdough made with Bio-Wheat.

“What attracted me to the hospitality industry is the people! I love meeting people from different walks of life and hearing about their experiences. I learn from them all the time,” says multi-talented Sohail Seegobin, Inter-Hotel Challenge 2020 Lancewood Ultimate Pastry Chef of the Year.

“When it comes to sharing who my role model is, I take a different approach. I like to say that ‘Nature’ is my role model—there is a lesson in how Nature gives so much without asking for anything in return.

My long-term career goal is to spearhead an organisation that looks after the people who work in the hospitality industry, ensuring equality and protection for chefs in South Africa. I believe everyone in this industry contributes significantly to travel and tourism, yet they are often poorly rewarded and overworked, especially at junior levels.”

This is a refreshing citrus gin-based cocktail for everyday enjoyment, made from a trio of orange, lemon and grapefruit zest infused aromatically with fresh rosemary herbs.

15 ml Butlers Triple Sec orange liqueur

50 ml soda water

Glassware: Martini
Garnish: Rosemary sprigs and lemon peel for garnish.

Add egg white to a shaker and dry shake. Add ClemenGold Gin, citrus syrup and orange liqueur with 1 scoop of ice and shake until chilled. Pour 50 ml of club soda into a pre-chilled Martini glass, then strain over shaken ingredients. Garnish with lemon peel and a spring of rosemary.

*Aromatic Citrus Syrup:
2 oranges
1 grapefruit
1 LemonGold seedless lemon (keep pulp for citrus juice)
120 ml sugar
6 sprigs of rosemary
90 ml freshly squeezed juice
40 ml apple cider vinegar

Use vegetable peeler to remove the zest of the oranges, grapefruit and lemon. Place the zest in a mixing bowl and set aside. Juice the citrus and reserve 90 ml, refrigerate. Add sugar and rosemary to the zest. Use muddler to mix sugar and zest. Cover bowl and let it sit overnight, this will form a thick syrup.
