  4. **Combine cocktail ingredients:** In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz gin, 1 oz yuzu juice, and ¾ oz simple syrup.
  5. **Shake vigorously:** Fill the shaker with ice and shake well for 15-20 seconds.
  6. **Strain and serve:** Strain the cocktail into an ice-filled glass.
  7. **Garnish and enjoy:** Garnish with a few thinly sliced pieces of ginger root and fresh mint leaves.
