Blackberry Bramble
The Blackberry Bramble is a refreshing cocktail that combines gin, fresh lemon juice, crème de mûre, and blueberry syrup.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 2 ounces gin
- 1 ounce crème de mûre
- 1 ounce lemon juice
- .5 ounce blueberry syrup
- 1 cup crushed ice plus more for your shaker
- 3 whole blackberries for your garnish
Instructions
- Fill a rocks glass with crushed ice.
- To a cocktail shaker, add additional ice, gin, and lemon juice.
- Shake quickly and pour over the crushed ice in the rocks glass.
- Drizzle the crème de mûre over the back of a bar spoon to achieve a marbled effect.
- Drizzle the blueberry syrup over the back of a bar spoon to achieve the same effect.
- Garnish with blackberries and serve immediately.
Notes
- You can substitute blackberry liqueur or Chambord for crème de mûre.
- The classic version uses simple syrup instead of blueberry syrup. If you choose the classic version, add the simple syrup to the shaker with the gin and lemon juice. The simple syrup does not need to be drizzled.
- We used blackberries for our garnish, but feel free to be creative here - blueberries, a lemon peel, or even a sprig of thyme would all be great additions to garnishes.
- If you don't have a bar spoon, you can use the back of any spoon for these purposes.
