Black Widow Cocktail



I thought since this week is introducing you back into the blog and also starting to post about various creatures in the blog this would be a great cocktail to post under “Adult Corner”


Enjoy responsibly


This recipe yields 1 cocktail


What you'll need:

2.5oz blackberries; plus a few extra for garnish


3/4T of caster sugar


1/2 tsp vanilla extract


1/2oz fresh lemon juice


1 1/2oz vodka


3-4 blocks of ice


soda water to to top up


raspberries for garnish



Create:

Chill the glass in the freezer for 2-3 minutes and get your other ingredients prepped whilst the glass is chilling.


Put half of your blackberries in the glass, along with your sugar and vanilla extract. Then muddle the ingredients together.


From there add your lemon juice and vodka and then stir until the sugar is dissolved.


Add the rest of the blackberries and your ice.


Top up the drink almost to the top of the glass with soda water and then give the drink a few more stirs.


Thread a piece of raspberry and blackberry onto a toothpick, and then place on the rim of your glass as a garnish.


Serve and enjoy!
