this one is very simple

one volume of frozen summer fruits at approx -20C
one volume of gin at approx 4 C

stir that a few times over about 5 mins so as the fruits separate and start to warm a bit

add one volume of warm water at approx 35C

stir for a minute
the result is dry, slightly astringent and at a perfect cocktail temperature

adding odds and ends* might tweak it a little, but the basic mix has merit as it is

it is a perfect pre-dinner drink, although half a pint for brunch might be unwise

* salt, maple syrup and perhaps a hint of vanilla
i will let you know

sieved into small apéritif glasses with a single prize berry would be sensible and stylish

the slightly spent fruit could make a nice sauce or tart filling

even with no tweaks it is rather nice, that fizzy stuff is very overrated as a mixer

aaarrrhhh grog, breakfast of pirates
