Bramble

The Bramble is a drink so simple and obvious, you’d be forgiven for assuming it was a classic recipe like a Smash or a Daisy. But it’s actually from the 1980s, created by London legend Dick Bradsell.

Bradsell’s Bramble recipe calls for blackberry liqueur, but it’s actually a fantastic template for any berry liqueur – raspberry, cassis, or even a local specialty like huckleberry or lingonberry liqueur.

Since the Bramble is a riff on the classic Cobbler template, it should be served the same way: festooned with fresh berries, a slice of lemon, and perhaps even a dusting of powdered sugar or edible pearl powder.

Shake the gin, lemon juice, and simple syrup with ice. Strain into an ice-filled short glass and top with the berry liqueur. Garnish with fresh berries and a slice of lemon.
