I love gin drinks and while we’re being honest, really just all things British. So when I got these fun glasses I couldn’t wait to find a new fun recipe. The Bramble is a classic one, and we always have fresh picked blackberries on hand, so it was naturally a perfect choice. Typically, it’s made with gin (and that’s my preference) but we also did a twist and made a bourbon version that was just as tasty!
