Very good indeed. But garnished mine with a dried apple slice and a sprinkle of powdered cinnamon.

This also works just as well with white rum…

And a promotion to four stars!

This is very good- better than 3.5 stars! I’ve made it a few times now and it’s better if berries muddled first; and if you are one of those people who doesn’t like too strong an aniseed flavour- don’t worry. It’s quite subtle; and you can always add a bit more vanilla syrup.
