Blackberry Gin Fizz

The drink category that goes by the name fizz are carbonated with water (club soda, seltzer or sparkling water) and something acidic/sour, like lemon or lime, often with a bit of sugar and ice.

Can you eat blackberries for breakfast? can you drink gin for breakfast? May I offer you a drink? It’s cold, the ice clinks against the side of a very full glass which, you know, is about the finest sound there is. It’s the kind of fizzy that gently mists your face as you lean in for a sip, which would be annoying.

This is where the blackberry gin fizz comes in, all of the fizzy gin but the fruit isn’t “infused” it’s just there. and it’s a bit fruitier, and it’s also a lot prettier, try it out.

Ingredients:

Direction:

Purée blackberries and sugar in a blender until as liquefied as possible. Strain purée through a fine-mesh sieve or tea strainer into two tall or glasses, discard seeds in sieve.

Divide gin and lime juice between glasses and stir to combine. Add ice to glasses then top each with soda and a sprig of basil or wedge of lime. (Might need another quick stir to combine.) Share with someone
