I prefer the syrup. Since most cocktails only call for 1/4 or 1/2 oz, I think the only advantage to adding alcohol is probably to give it a longer shelf life. And I would definitely use whole berries cracked by mortar and pestle or briefly with a coffee grinder. You want an infusion, not a solution. That's probably why you find the Grog Blog version overpowering. It took me 3 tries to get it right, but I'm verrrrry happy with the results! |
