Picture
Cake:
185g block margarine or butter (softened)
185g caster sugar
zest of 2 lemons
3 medium eggs
185g self raising flour
pinch of salt
2 tbsp gin

Icing:
200g icing sugar
100ml gin

1. Grease and line a large loaf tin

8. While the cake is cooling a little, mix the gin and icing sugar (a whisk can help cure any lumps in your icing)
9. Slowly drizzle the icing all over the cake
