Housemade Raspberry Syrup for Clover Thyme Club cocktail

Liquid_kitchen_clover_thyme_club_smallHomemade syrups are easy to make and a great way to include fresh ingredients in tasty treats like ice cream or in a fantastic cocktail, like the pre-prohibition Clover Club cocktail.

This week on Kathy Casey’s Liquid Kitchen™ I make a Clover Thyme Club using a DIY Raspbery Syrup! Using the Vitamix Barboss Advance, I blend fresh raspberries, sugar and water then reduce it down ’til its nice and syruppy. For the cocktail, the fresh syrup plays well with gin, lemon juice, fresh thyme and egg whites for this frothy and herbalacious libation!

Cheers! -Kathy
