Ingredients

Mint sugar

Method

1.Mix Grand Marnier, lemon juice and sugar in a bowl. Stir until sugar dissolves.
2.Slowly pour in cream while hand-whisking until all the ingredients are combined.
3.Get out your electric mixer – or eggbeater, if you have some time on your hands – and whip until thick
4.Add rose-water and taste. The rose flavour should be faint, but if it’s too weak you might want to add more,as brands vary in strength.
5.Keep whipping the ingredients until the mixture forms soft peaks on the blades of the eggbeater, but not until it’s so thick you can stand a spoon in it – be very careful not to overdo it.
6.Spoon the mixture into lovely old decorative glasses and garnish with raspberries or make the more traditional mint sugar.
7.To make the mint sugar, sprinkle sugar over mint leaves. Mash them in a mortar and pestle until they combine and form green crystals. Sprinkle liberally over syllabub.
