Description
The Wildberry Smash is a modern and incredibly refreshing "smash" cocktail. In this type of drink, fresh fruits or herbs are muddled directly in the shaker to release their aromas to the fullest. Here, the clean base of vodka meets an explosion of fresh forest berries. Lime juice and a hint of simple syrup provide the perfect sweet-and-sour balance before the drink is topped with a fruity wild berry tonic. A perfect summer drink.
Preparation
- Gently muddle the fresh forest berries in a cocktail shaker.
- Add vodka, lime juice, simple syrup, and ice cubes.
- Shake vigorously.
- Fill a tumbler with crushed ice.
- Strain the contents of the shaker through a fine sieve into the glass.
- Slowly top up with the wild berry tonic and garnish with fresh berries and mint.
