The Tipsy Muse's Cobbler

DSCF8462.jpg

The classic cobbler format is essentially a base spirit that is sweetened by some form of syrup and adorned with seasonal fruit. The most popular one might be sherry cobbler. If you are a whisky drinker, I have found bourbon works the best to retain cobbler's fruitness and brightness. You can also innovate with fresh berry juice instead of cream de mure.

Here is the one I designed for Norlan Glass Vawe, where I use Old Elk bourbon. I muddled fresh strawberry and blueberry instead of cream de mure, in addition to berry sage reduction. The sage is a nice touch because it adds more complexity to the fruity tasting profile. Bay leaf would work great with berries too!
