  • Loads of raspberry seeds. Should strain them out.
Similar cocktails

Nothing special but enjoyable - I don't mind the seeds and flesh of raspberries, but a bit of lime on top helps. A grown up Shirley Temple?


Strange Mercy

1 oz Genever, Bols
1 oz Gin, St. George Terroir
1⁄2 oz Tea syrup (jasmine green tea 1:1 with sugar)
1 twst Lemon peel (expressed and discarded)
Instructions

Stir, strain, up or rock, twist.

Notes

These two spirits work extremely well together, and even if you don't have the tea syrup (which is cheap, quick, and easy to make) I recommend trying them out together with different sweeteners: Bénédictine, Drambuie, honey, Maraschino, simple, whatever you have around.

Curated this slightly - changed the volume of Champagne to fit into a flute instead of "one glass", which can be vague.

Thanks,
