Here is a step-by-step guide on how to make pandan gin:

1. Start by preparing the pandan syrup. Pandan leaves are commonly used in Southeast Asian cuisine and have a unique sweet and fragrant flavor. To make the syrup, you will need pandan leaves and simple syrup (equal parts water and sugar, heated until the sugar dissolves). Cut the pandan leaves into smaller pieces and blend them with the simple syrup until well combined. Strain the mixture to remove any solids, and you will be left with pandan syrup.

2. Next, fill your cocktail shaker with ice. The ice will help chill the cocktail and dilute it slightly.

3. Add the desired amount of gin into the cocktail shaker. The amount of gin can vary depending on your preference and the size of your cocktail.

4. Squeeze fresh lime juice into the shaker. The lime juice adds a refreshing citrusy flavor to the cocktail. The amount of lime juice can also be adjusted to your taste.

5. Measure out the pandan syrup and add it to the cocktail shaker. The pandan syrup will provide a distinctive and aromatic sweetness to the gin cocktail.

6. Close the cocktail shaker tightly and shake vigorously. This will help blend the ingredients together and create a frothy texture. Shake until the tin becomes very cold and frosted.
