The Bramble is a tart, refreshing gin cocktail that perfectly balances bright citrus with juicy berry flavors. Built on a foundation of London Dry Gin, it's shaken with fresh lemon juice and a touch of simple syrup, then crowned with a drizzle of crème de mûre (blackberry liqueur) for a beautiful layered effect. It's typically served over crushed ice and garnished with fresh blackberries and a slice of lemon.

4-Ingredient Lemon Pound Cake
The secret to this four-ingredient lemon pound cake is sweetened condensed milk. Dense but moist, it makes a great base for strawberry shortcake. When served by itself, I top it with a simple lemon juice and powdered sugar glaze.
