In October last year, our staff completed WSET Spirits Level 2, the first time the course had been run in Australia. Hannah, who flew over from the UK to teach the course, talked a lot about cocktails which highlighted the spirits used, rather than hiding the them with other flavours. When Hannah came across a spirit or cocktail that she got excited about, she would say it gave her ‘Fizzy Knickers’, hence the name of this cocktail! 1/2 tsp coriander powder 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp chilli powder 1 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp baking powder 4 tsp chick pea flour 60-80ml water You will need: Method 1. Soak chick peas in cold water overnight. 2. Next day, drain off water, place chick peas in food processor with rest of ingredients, blitz till fine but not pureed, remove, place in a bowl and leave for an hour or so.
