PURPLE STAG COCKTAIL


Purple Stag Cocktail Recipe is the second in my series of drinks posts. 

I realised I share very few drink recipes or recommendations apart from smoothies, so this week I 'm sharing some tasty summer drinks. 


They are great if you are pregnant, it's your turn to drive or you are just trying to cut down on how many units you are drinking each week.

I this post I say to hell with that and share some alcohol. 

Well, do have to cover both sides don't I?


pin it for later

Purple Stag Cocktail Recipe

FRESH BLACKBERRIES


The Purple Stag is a summer cocktail made with fresh blackberries, blackcurrant jam, yes jam and Jägermeister. 

It's a gorgeous colour isn't it and I think we can count it as one of our five-a-day, can't we?

It's so fruity and delicious over ice. 

The perfect summer cocktail.

BLACKBERRY FACTS


  1. Blackberries are also called brambles, brambleberries and dewberries.
  2. Batology is the study of blackberries, not bats.
  3. Blackberries are high in anti-oxidants.
  4. Unripe blackberries are red and not green.
  5. These berries are very low in calories. Only 43 calories in 100g of blackberries.

    1. Haha, well spotted Amy and no. I have to hand code for my recipe box. I did a copy and paste & obviously missed that. Thanks for spotting it and please don't add pesto to your cocktail ;)

  4. You know, I've never tried Jagermeister. I think I've been put off by seeing people get carried away with Jagerbombs on skiing holidays. You've made it sound much more refined! Love that seasonal blackberries are in it/ Practically a health drink ;-)

    1. I actually just posted a roundup of non-alcoholic drinks. Have a look at my post 7 Refreshing Soft and Non-Alcholic Drinks for Summer and try substituting the alcohol. Mix it up!

  13. This was phenominal! Thanks for posting. I used Blackberry Jam instead of Black Currant jam, and used Lipton "Forest Fruits" berry tea. It worked great, a very delicious and sophisticated drink.
