Jon McClure Crafts New Cocktail

Outspoken indie star Jon McClure has crafted a new cocktail in co-operation with Jack Daniels.

Jon McClure is a man of the people. The Sheffield star has made his name through a series of down to earth interviews, proving that the adulation of thousands hasn't changed the simple precepts by which he lives his life.

With Mongrel on hold the singer has returned to his first love Reverend And The Makers. Spending the year touring, releasing a new album and even curating a festival the singer decided that he needed a damn good drink to unwind.

Teaming up with Jack Daniels the singer has crafted a new cocktail. Based around the iconic bourbon, Jon McClure put his skills as a former barman to the test with his testy new concoction.

The result is named 'Marmalade Sun' after one of his friend's bands. A heavenly combination of citrus and spice flavours, maple syrup and of course Jack Daniels the end product is a cocktail fit for a Reverend.

Jon McClure told fans: “I used to work in a pub, but I mainly pulled pints. Making cocktails is far more enjoyable and tasty. Jack Daniel’s is the right spirit for my cocktail as it’s the music rockers drink. I am really pleased with my creation.”

The recipe for Jon McClure's 'Marmalade Sun' is as follows:

· 50ml Jack Daniel's
· 15ml Fresh Orange Juice
· 15ml Fresh Lemon Juice
· 2 tsp Maple Syrup
· 1 tsp Marmalad
· Slice of Ginger

Method
Muddle fresh ginger in a shaker, add all other ingredients, shake over ice. Strain into a rocks glass filled with crushed ice, top with crushed ice. Garnish with a slice of fresh ginger and a flamed slice of fresh orange.
