Fade To Black Cocktail

How to make:

MUDDLE blackberries in base of shaker. Add other ingredients, SHAKE with ice and strain back into shaker. DRY SHAKE (without ice) and fine strain into chilled glass.

Garnish:

Float 3 drops Angostura Bitters

Comment:

A Rum Sour blackened with blackberries and activated charcoal. The black charcoal which makes this cocktail black does little for the taste and given the potential issues with charcoal this tasty cocktail is perhaps best appreciated without its addition (as illustrated photographed here).

About:
