Notes
I’ve found that this cocktail works best when you experiment a little. Feel free to adjust the sweetness by adding more or less simple syrup. If you like a tart flavor, squeeze in some extra lemon juice. 🍋
For a non-alcoholic version, simply leave out the gin and replace the crème de mûre with a fruit syrup for a fruity punch.
