Recipe for bramble with asti
A super beautiful and simultaneously sweet and fresh cocktail; the classic Bramble made with gin, blackberries, and lemon juice, and in this version, with a bit of Asti… suuuuper refreshing and delicious.
This very light drink is poured over with a bit of blackberry syrup at serving, and the red syrup creates beautiful patterns as it mixes with the liquid and the crushed ice. Afterwards, the red blackberry syrup lies as a beautiful red layer in the drink. Pretty and very simple to make.
And it tastes absolutely fantastic.
You will need sugar syrup and blackberry syrup for this cocktail. Both can be bought ready-made, or you can make them yourself with just a few ingredients.
I’m including recipes for both here if you’d like to try making the syrups yourself.
