The hottest day of the year here in Sweden (so far), so time for a refreshing drink on the balcony!

  • 2 oz gin
  • 1 oz lemon juice
  • 1/2 oz simple syrup
  • 1/2 oz crème de cassis (I think it is supposed to be blackberry instead of blackcurrant, but I only had this at home!)

Shake everything with ice except the crème de cassis, serve over crushed ice, and pour the cassis on top.

It was really nice for a hot day, but the simple syrup was unneeded in my opinion, it ended up being quite dessert-like.
