The Art of The Shelly

About the Recipe

Everyone’s heard of a shoey, well now we’re bringing out the Shelly! ⁠⁠

We take ice cold frozen Oyster Shell Gin and pour it into a freshly consumed oyster shell. You then down it in one. ⁠

The Shelly is an incredible way to sample our briney coastal gin, one that pops with bright salted citrus character.”⁠

Ingredients

Pacific Oysters

Oyster Shell Gin

Method

Step 1

Ensure your bottle of Oyster Shell Gin is thoroughly chilled. Ideally spending 24 hours in a freezer. Uncap the bottle and get it ready for the next step.

Step 2

Select a plump, fresh oyster, preferably from the chilled selection that you have in front of you. Ensure the shell is deep enough to be an appropriate receptacle for the frozen gin that is about to be poured directly into it. Be greedy, find the big one.

Step 3

Look deeply into the eyes of your guest (Shelly’s are always better when shared between friends) and cheers your oyster joyfully.

Step 4

Position yourself appropriately and consume the fresh oyster with a gleeful slurp.

Step 5

Allow your guest to fill the now empty shell with frozen Never Never Oyster Shell Gin.

Step 6

Consume the frozen gin in a flamboyant gesture to ensure the table next to you is aware of how fabulous you are.
