Bramble Screwdriver cocktail recipe
Erica Sagon
Presenting the perfect day drink — the Bramble Screwdriver.
Perfect. Really. How can we be so sure?
Well, we've had our fair share of these in broad daylight.
But also: It has just two ingredients (it barely needs a recipe, really) and it's incredibly easy-drinking. And, it's familiar — this is a twist on a Screwdriver, which is simply vodka and OJ —but swapping regular vodka for our flavorful Bramble vodka makes it feel like more of a cocktail, without any of the labor.
Bramble is our black raspberry-hibiscus vodka — it adds a bright, lush flavor to cocktails, and it just happens to be dynamite with OJ. (Did you know that Wine Enthusiast just awarded our Bramble 92 points?)
Brunch, tailgates, Saturdays on the lake ... this is your drink.
BRAMBLE SCREWDRIVER
Makes 1 cocktail
6 ounces orange juice
1.5 ounces Cardinal Spirits Bramble
Fill a mason jar or Collins glass with ice, then add orange juice. Gently pour in the Bramble, letting it float on top for a layered look. Garnish with a orange wedge, and give it a stir before sipping.
One more thing: Don't skimp on the quality of OJ. At the distillery, we make Bramble Screwdrivers with fresh-squeezed OJ, which will change your life. That's not always convenient at home, though. Pick a better-quality bottled OJ, or if your grocery store fresh-squeezes and bottles OJ, go with that!
