Cocktail for a vampire
Mid-way through October, I am really getting into the Halloween spirit…and also the spirits. This drink was developed as one of the menu items for our vampire party. It is a simple gin and jam made to please the thirstiest of blood suckers.
Ingredients:
2 oz gin
3/4 oz lemon juice
1/2 oz simple syrup
1 teaspoon strawberry or raspberry jam
Add gin, lemon juice, and simple syrup to an ice filled cocktail shaker. Shake to chill. Strain into a coupe or ice-filled rocks glass. Top with a spoon of jam. Enjoy responsibly.
