Blackthorn & Thyme Fizz
Sloe gin brings a rich, plummy depth to this effervescent fizz. The combination of dark berries and lemon juice makes it deeply refreshing, while the fresh thyme adds a gorgeous, rustic aroma.
Ingredients
1.5 oz Sloe Gin
0.5 oz 1000 Piers Blueberry Gin
0.5 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
2 to 3 oz Champagne or Prosecco
Garnish: Fresh Thyme
Method
Shake: Combine the sloe gin, berry liqueur, and fresh lemon juice in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake briefly (about 5-8 seconds) just to chill and combine.
Build: Fill a white wine glass with fresh ice cubes. Strain the shaken mixture over the ice.
Top: Top the glass with chilled champagne and give it a very gentle, brief stir from the bottom to integrate.
Garnish: Slap a sprig of fresh thyme against your wrist to awaken the aromatics and tuck it into the glass.
