Ramble
2 oz
A gin distilled in Plymouth, England. It is less dry than the more common London Dry gin, mainly due to more root ingredients that soften the juniper flavor.
1 oz
The most common fruit juice used in cocktails. This citrus juice is about 6% acid; pure citric acid. Lemon juice should be used the day it is squeezed, some like it freshly squeezed and others like it a few hours old.
1.25 oz
A syrup made from dissolving granulated sugar (sucrose) in water. Regular simple is made by combining 1:1 sugar:water by mass, rich simple is 2:1 sugar:water by mass although only 1.5 times as sweet as regular. We always use 1:1 syrup unless otherwise noted in the recipe itself.
3
A small berry that is used as a garnish or muddled for its tangy, sour flavor and red color.
In a shaker, combine the gin, lemon juice, and .75 ounce of the simple syrup. Short shake with 3 ice cubes, then strain into a highball glass filled with crushed ice. Empty the shaker, then add the raspberries and the remaining .5 ounce simple syrup. Gently muddle the raspberries, then pour over the top of the drink and serve with a straw. #shake #ontherocks #muddle
