2 oz / 6 cl Purity Vodka 51 Connoisseur Reserve
1 oz / 3 cl blackcurrant liqueur
1/2 oz / 1.5 cl fresh lemon juice
1/4 oz / 0.75 cl simple syrup
Fresh blackcurrants on a pick, for garnish
Vodka and deep blackcurrant, shaken until purple-red and glossy. Rich, dark fruit with a fresh lift of lemon. Vodka 51 Connoisseur Reserve gives the berries a silky, elegant base.
Chill a martini glass.
Shake all ingredients hard with ice for about 12 seconds.
Double strain into the chilled glass and rest the blackcurrants across the rim.
If you have fresh blackcurrants, muddle two of them with the syrup first. They add a brighter, fresher note to the liqueur.
