Notes
BRAMBLE – WHAT IS IT? Created in London in the 1980s, the Bramble is a gin-based cocktail known for its balance of sweet and tart flavours. The blackberry liqueur gives it its signature colour as it trickles through the crushed ice. It’s a great cocktail for anyone who enjoys a refreshing drink with a little sweetness.
