BRAMBLE COCKTAIL RECIPE
Why We Love the Bramble Cocktail
Created by Dick Bradsell in the 1980s, the Bramble is a fantastic spring cocktail. The cocktail contains dry gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup, crème de mûre, and crushed ice. We love the Bramble Cocktail because it's simple to make and is a well balanced drink. With sweet and sour tones the Bramble has a classic taste and is very popular in the UK.
Our Bramble Cocktail Recipe
We've kept our Bramble Cocktail recipe simple, so you can easily make these for your guests or yourself.
GinYou can include whatever drink you have, but we would recommend a dry gin for an iconic flavour.
Lemon JuiceFreshly squeezed is always preferred. This helps balance out the sweetness of the drink.
You can buy sugar syrup or make your own, making your own is surprisingly easy.
Crème de mûreCrème de mûre is a dark liqueur and gives the cocktail its bitterness. You can also use blackberry liqueur.
Fresh BlackberriesAdding fresh blackberries on top of the cocktail gives the Bramble its unique appearance.
Double Dutch Double LemonThe addition of Double Dutch Double Lemon takes the bramble cocktail to the next level.
