Instructions
Decorate your Mummy Glasses
Cut Bandage length-wise, so that the width of the bandage is 1/2 as wide
Combine flour and water in small bowl or ramekin, and stir until the solution is dissolved
Use the flour mixture like glue, and paint the stem of the glass, immediately wrapping gauze around the stem
Paint the glass where you want your gauze to spiral up. (Leave some spaces for the cocktail and Mummy face to show through)
Tuck any edges and secure with your glue. Gently wash off excess glue marks.
Be creative with your gauze placement, folding, and fraying- (Mummies weren't neat and uniform)
Lay the glass down on a towel, place 2 dots of glue, and add googly eyes. (Let dry for 5 minutes)
Make your Pink G&T
Add Gin, Bitters, Lime and Juniper berries to a cocktail shaker and shake
Add Tonic to the shaker and gently stir
Add ice cubes to your glass
Use a funnel to pour your Pink G&T into your decorated glass
Serve and Enjoy
