Method

  1. Infuse the gin with blue cheese

    • Strain into a glass and garnish with rosemary and olives.

  4. Soft boil the eggs

    • Lower the eggs into boiling water and cook for exactly seven minutes.
    • Transfer to ice water to stop cooking and make peeling easy.
    Step 4

  5. Prepare the dips and toppings

    • Mix the ranch dressing with bacon bits and honey.
    • Trim the roots of the spring onions and slice them.
    • Peel the eggs and serve with chili oil.
