BLUEBERRY ROSEMARY BRAMBLE

• Fill an 8- to 12-ounce glass with ice and strain the cocktail over the ice. Garnish with a rosemary sprig and a few blueberries.
• Add the sugar, rosemary sprigs and 1 cup water to a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a low simmer, stirring regularly, until the sugar has completely dissolved and the rosemary is fragrant, about 3 minutes.

BLUEBERRY GIN

Steps:

• In a large bottle pour gin, add blueberries and sugar, shake well and refrigerate for 2 weeks or up to 2 months.
• Shake the bottle from time to time, you will see a marvellous rich colour developing as the days go by.
• To serve: Place a shot of gin in a blender with crushed ice, blend, pour into chilled glasses and top with tonic and garnish with a sprig of mint. Alternatively, serve alone in a small chilled glass with ice cube.
• I will post a photo once my gin is done as I said I only put it in the fridge a few days ago so I will have to be patient until it is done.
