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.
