Ingredients:

125ml freshly squeezed orange juice,

1 measure Cointreau,

1 measure vodka,

1 tsp sugar,

Juice of 1 lime,

crushed ice,

lemon sorbet

Small amount of grated lime peel

Sprig of mint

egg white and sugar for frosting, mint and grated lime zest for garnish

Instructions:

Add the orange juice, Cointreau, vodka, lime juice and sugar to a cocktail shaker.

"Frost" the cocktail glass by dipping the rim into the beaten egg white, allowing to dry slightly, and then dipping into the granulated sugar. Leave aside to dry. ( I didn't do this bit)

Pour contents of shaker into the glass filled with crushed ice and add a small scoop of lemon sorbet. Garnish with the grated lime zest and a small sprig of fresh mint.

Serves one (with a bit left over!)
