About me:
What Is A Shrub Drink?
I'm constantly interested by exactly how
alcoholic drinks get their names-- and after
browsing my reasonable share of bar menus, there
is one term specifically I have actually
constantly contemplated: the shrub. What makes a
drink a shrub? And just how did this word, which I
relate to a well-groomed yard, happened connected
with cocktails?
"Shrub" is actually the name of two
different alcohol-related drinks, and vinegar
plays a pretty huge function in this
beverage's background. One kind is a fruit
liqueur that was particularly prominent in 17th
century England, made with rum or brandy, sugar,
fruit and citrus juice-- though vinegar was made
use of instead of citrus to protect berries in the
off-season. This liqueur would then be mixed with
flat or sparkling water to produce a cocktail. The
various other sort of shrub is a sweetened
vinegar-based syrup that can be made use of to
make a beverage-- this is also called
"alcohol consumption vinegar," and also
is generally instilled with fruit juice, herbs and
flavors. |
