Dick Bradsell passed away recently.  He was a very influential in thecocktail world, especially in his native country England.  Mr. Bradsell invented, among otherdrinks, the Espresso Martini and the Bramble.  In Mr. Bradsell‘s honor, our Cocktail of the Week is the Bramble.

Bramble

•            2 oz Gin (I used St. George Terrior)


•       1 oz Fresh Lemon Juice


•             ¾ oz Simple Syrup


•            ½ oz Crème de Mure (I used Cedilla Acai Liqueur, Chambered would also work)

Shake first three ingredients.  Strain into an Old Fashioned glassfilled with crushed ice.  Top withCrème de Mure.
