Invented in the mid-1980s by bartender Dick Bradsell, the Bramble is a classic blackberry-based cocktail. It was inspired in part by the fresh blackberries Bradsell harvested as a child while on the Isle of Wight. Bradsell created the drink based on childhood memories. He experimented with different ingredients to make it more original.
Bradsell’s Bramble is a refreshing drink which balances sweet to sour notes. It can be made with different base spirits, including Chambord raspberry liqueur, dry pisco and grassy rhum agricole.
The Bramble is an alcoholic blackberry cocktail that has a unique mix of sweet and sour flavours. This drink is very easy to make. You can make it either in a tall jar or a large glass. This is the perfect drink for a hot August night.
The drink was first created at Fred's Club in London's Soho neighborhood. Bradsell stated that the drink was made with sustainable straws. Bradsell also spoke to Difford's Guide. The drink is made of blackberry simple syrup (gin) and crushed ice. In a winding fashion, the liqueur should be poured from top-to-bottom.
Also, the drink can be served in an ice-filled rocks cup. This glass is used as a dilute and allows the flavors of the drink to slowly unfold.
Bramble is an easy drink that is great for refreshing hot August evenings. It is also great for autumn. It's very easy to make and it's a great way of using blackberries in your cocktail.
You can serve the Bramble with crushed ice. This will help to dilute the drink and add some tang. It pairs well with a younger whiskey with a higher percentage of rye. This helps to cut through the sweetness of the liqueurs and plays well with the berry notes in the crème de mure.
It's also worth trying to make your own crème de mure. Creme de marmalade, a blackberry liqueur which can be substituted for the Bramble's simple syrup of blackberries, is a good choice. This liqueur is fruity and adds a touch of bitterness and tartness to the drink. It also tastes great with a lemon wedge as a garnish.
It is also possible to add spiced apples juice to the recipe. In fact, you can even make a Bramble with tequila instead of lemon. This drink can be made in a matter of minutes and has a touch of spice from the tequila.
Make a bramble by shaking the gin in a container or a jar. You can also shake or shake the gin using a mason-jar.
Next, mix together the blackberries and star anise. For a more artistic look, you can add a wedge or lemon.
The Bramble, while a simple cocktail is still quite unique amongst the provocatively named drinks from 1980s, is not a boring one. It's a standout drink because of its unique mix of sweet and bitter tones. It's easy to make, making it the ideal drink for warm August evenings.
