Petal Five
The winning creation of Japanese bartender Claude Bosse at the 2016 Boston World Competition: five ingredients as five petals — elderflower and Cointreau lift the neutral vodka frame into layers of floral sweetness, with clean acidity and a soft blush colour that hardly looks like a champion's drink.
