To celebrate a Soho institution given a new lease of life, we wanted to recreate an aperitivo that would have been popular in its heyday. Clementine juice is fantastically delicate but lasts barely an hour before it loses its fragrance, so needs to be juiced fresh. This drink should be served short; a chilled champagne flute works well.

Serves 4

20ml Campari
20ml fresh clementine juice
15ml simple syrup
12.5 lemon juice
60ml Cava

Shake all ingredients (bar the Cava) and strain into a chilled aperitivo glass. Garnish with an orange twist.
