Dramble

With the sun coming out, I thought it was time for a series of Single Malt Cocktails.

Number one in this series: Dramble. In honour of my Drambuddie Dramblingman, I found this cocktail that is resembling his name on diffortsguide.com. I did alter the ingredients a bit, with the main difference: A single malt as main ingredient.

Ingredients:

• 6 cl of a single malt whisky, in this case: Glenkinchie 12yo

• 3 cl (fresh) lemon juice.

• 2 cl Sugar syrup (Monin pure sugar cane)

• 2 cl Blackberry liqueur (I used Boomsma Bramen)

• Crushed Ice in a glass

• Optional: Garnish (a blackberry of slice of orange)

Tools:

• glass stirrer

Instructions:

• Put the crushed ice in the glass

• Add the whisky

• Add the lemon juice

• Add the sugar syrup

• Stir the mix until mixed. (Not too long, the ice starts melting!)

• Pour the blackberry liqueur over the mix. (I stirred it as well.)

• Add garnish

Enjoy!

My result:

This is a truly refreshing cocktail! I think I'll try it with a peated whisky as well in the near future.

Like i mentioned in the intro: I based this on the recipe on diffordsguide.com. Here you can read about the history of this cocktail and see the original measures and ingredients. It might also be a source for some other great cocktail recipes!
