Rhubarb Vodka Shrub Cocktail
Here I’ve created a beautiful spring rhubarb ‘heavy shrub’ recipe, with a dash of fresh strawberries to jazz it up. Drink your shrub with a splash of club soda, or make it into my latest favorite cocktail, the Rhubarb Vodka Shrub.
Servings: 2 cocktails
Ingredients
- 3 ounces of vodka
- 2 ounces Rhubarb & Strawberry Shrub
- 1 ounce St~Germain Elderflower Liquor
- 2 strawberries washed & trimmed (plus more for garnish)
- splash of Seltzer water
Instructions
- Reserve two low ball glasses. Take a strawberry and cut about 1/2 inch into the bottom. Run the cut end of the strawberry around the rim of the glasses (this will lend a beautiful strawberry scent to the glass)
- In a cocktail shaker cup, add 2 halved strawberries, and mash with a muddler.
- Add the shrub syrup, vodka, and elderflower liquor.
- Fill the shaker cup with a small handful of ice and shake vigorously until well chilled.
- Fill your low ball glasses halfway with ice, and strain the cocktail into the already prepared glasses. Add a splash of seltzer water and mix gently.
- Garnish with strawberries and rhubarb ribbons, if available.
