How to Make It
Step
In a cocktail shaker, muddle the orange slices with 5 of the thyme sprigs. Add the gin, vermouth, lemon juice and Simple Syrup. Fill the shaker with ice, shake well and fine-strain into a chilled white wine glass half-filled with ice. Stir in the ale and garnish with the remaining thyme sprig.
