Blackberry Sage Fix

Description

Blackberry gives this gin fix dark fruit, while fresh lime supplies a brighter, greener acidity. Sage adds a savoury edge to the finish and makes the berry taste less like jam. Bramble fans will recognise the gin-and-berry pairing and find a more herbal note here.

Ingredients

  • 50 ml Gin
  • 20 ml Blackberry syrup

Equipment needed

Cocktail Shaker – Used to chill, dilute and integrate the cocktail before serving. Muddler – Useful for gently pressing herbs, fruit or sugar when building the drink. Fine Mesh Strainer – Use for a polished double-strain when citrus, fruit or herbs are shaken.
