Cassis Bramble (sopuli.xyz)
 

The hottest day of the year here in Sweden (so far), so time for a refreshing drink on the balcony!

  • 2 oz gin
  • 1 oz lemon juice
  • 1/2 oz simple syrup
  • 1/2 oz crème de cassis (I think it is supposed to be blackberry instead of blackcurrant, but I only had this at home!)

Shake everything with ice except the crème de cassis, serve over crushed ice, and pour the cassis on top.

It was really nice for a hot day, but the simple syrup was unneeded in my opinion, it ended up being quite dessert-like.

We make hummus quite regularly, so we have a lot of aquafaba. I feel like it works quite well in drinks, but it would be interesting to try eggs and aquafaba side-by-side to compare!

I do love Amaretto sour, I usually do them with aquafaba. Haven't tried with the gin, but it can't be bad!

Starting the weekend with a bee's knees!

  • 2 oz Roku gin
  • 1 oz Honey syrup (2:1)
  • 1 oz lemon juice

Shaken with ice.

Starting my cocktail journey, and I really like the gin/honey combination. I need to try a 3:1 ratio for the honey syrup next time though!
