SPEAKEASY : Shrub Cocktails
This week on Three Kitchens Podcast Speakeasy we're experimenting with fermentation.
Heather discovered a drinking vinegar - also known as a shrub. It can be mixed in cocktails or mocktails in almost any combination. But what is a shrub?
A shrub is a method of fermenting, and therefore preserving, fruit. You combine fruit, vinegar and sugar and let it sit for 3-5 days in your fridge. You can also add herbs (think mint or basil). Heather made a blackberry and lemon shrub with apple cider vinegar and white sugar. The result is a zingy refreshing syrup that simply knocked our socks off and we've been experimenting with it ever since.
We mixed up a cocktail with equal parts shrub, bourbon and tonic water. Erin made hers a mocktail by simply adding bubbly water to her shrub. Play around with your own version of a shrub and let us know how it turns out. We'll be making these all summer long!
Blackberry Lemon Shrub Cocktail
Shake with ice equal parts:
- blackberry lemon shrub
- bourbon
Top with (again, equal part)
- tonic/soda
Pour over ice. Cheers!
