This drink is semi-historically accurate and from a very interesting part of Chinese history. The Three Kingdoms period has had a big impact on pop culture, mostly through the publishing of the book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", from which Total War takes its inspiration.

Jack's drink today is semi-historically accurate in that it uses key Chinese ingredients - lychee, cherry, rice wine - but with a gin base to give it an extra herbaceousness to knock back the sweetness of the fruits.

And don't even get us started on where the inspiration for his lychee garnish comes from. You'll have to watch the video to find out how f**ked up it is...

INGREDIENTS

1 oz Gin
0.5 oz Chinese rice wine (sake will also do)
0.5 oz Lychee Liqueur
0.5 oz Cherry Brandy
