Cherry Beer

I blame this cocktail on Maxanne and Hawksmoor at Home.

The book has a cocktail called ‘Shaky Pete’s’ Ginger Brew, it sounded good. I didn’t have any of the ingredients. I did have a bottle of Blue Moon (Max’s fault!) and some Blossom Cottage Morello Cherry Cordial. It seemed like the right thing to do. I swapped out the gin in the original recipe for white rum.

This is a lovely drink for the summer.

What

50ml cherry cordial

50ml lime juice

30ml white rum

100ml blue moon

ice

How

Throw a handful of ice, the orange juice, the cordial and the rum into a blender

Blend until the ice is chopped up and the mix is pink and frothy

Pour all of it into a glass and top up with the beer

Enjoy
