That typically includes a glass of <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/iced-bulletproof-coffee\/\">bulletproof coffee<\/a>, my <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/iced-golden-milk-turmeric-latte\/\">turmeric latte<\/a> or some flavored sparkling water, but this shrub recipe is my new go-to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-a-shrub\">What is a shrub?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ever heard of a shrub? No, not the plant, I\u2019m talking about the drink! A shrub is basically a vinegar-based drink that\u2019s made with fresh fruit and sugar. Personally, I&#8217;m not a huge fan of vinegar but these drinks are awesome because you only use a small amount for each drink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You have to trust me on this one! They&#8217;e a refreshing drink and, in my opinion, the perfect summer mocktail.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll essentially make simple syrup using fruit, herbs, vinegar, and sugar, and then let the mixture sit in the refrigerator so the flavors really mend together. Then, you&#8217;ll pour it into a glass and top it off with club soda. It&#8217;s delicious!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recipe features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Learn how to make two different varieties of fruit shrub: blackberry sage and grapefruit mint <\/li><li>Made with only fresh fruit, fresh herbs, sugar, vinegar, and club soda &#8212; that&#8217;s it! <\/li><li>A deliciously refreshing drink that can be enjoyed with or without alcohol!&nbsp;<\/li><li>You can buy pre-made shrub drinks at the store, but making them at home is <em>so<\/em> easy and I&#8217;m guessing more affordable too.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-6.jpg\" alt=\"two jars filled with colored simple syrup\" class=\"wp-image-109851\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-6.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-6-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-6-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-6-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-6-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-6-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-6-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Berries &#8211; <\/strong>Use fresh berries, not frozen, and for these recipes we&#8217;re using blackberries, grapefruit and strawberries&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Herbs &#8211;<\/strong> There are a variety of fresh herbs that can be used, but for these recipes, opt for fresh sage and fresh mint leaves<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Vinegar &#8211;<\/strong> I tend to opt for either apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar, though champagne vinegar is another great option. You&nbsp;<em>can<\/em>&nbsp;use white vinegar, but I prefer using vinegar that&#8217;s a slightly sweeter tasting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sugar &#8211; <\/strong>Cane sugar is my preference, but if you want to cut down on the sugar, monkfruit sweetener would work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Club soda &#8211;<\/strong> Or, use tonic water or soda water, and make sure it&#8217;s unflavored!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Directions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1: Mash the fruit.<\/strong> Start by adding the fruit, fresh herbs, sugar, and vinegar into a bowl, then use a potato masher the mash everything together for 2 minutes.

For example, I bought sage and the leaves were huge, so I didn&#8217;t need to use quite as many. <\/li><li><strong>Adding a fresh squeeze of lime juice<\/strong> to the drink before serving is a nice touch.&nbsp;<\/li><li>You can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abcfws.com\/what-are-cocktail-shrubs-and-how-to-use-them\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">learn all about shrub &#8220;cocktails&#8221; and how to use them<\/a> in this article.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other tasty shrub combinations:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Peach + basil <\/li><li>Pear + ginger <\/li><li>Raspberry + rosemary <\/li><li>Rhubarb + cinnamon&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I make this into a cocktail?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yep! If you want to make a shrub cocktail, add the shrub syrup and 1 ounce of gin, vodka or tequila to a cocktail shaker and shake. Pour into a glass, then top it off with the club soda. Add more alcohol and\/or fruit syrup as desired.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do I have to use cane sugar?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Nope! Though it&#8217;s a decent amount of sugar, each drink only uses 3 tablespoons of the syrup, which I don&#8217;t think is too bad. However, if you want to lighten up this shrub recipe, I suggest using a 1\/2 cup of honey, and then adding more to taste. I personally wouldn&#8217;t use maple syrup, as I think it&#8217;ll impact the overall flavor too much.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Refrigerator:<\/strong> Store the shrub syrup in a jar with a lid in the fridge for up to 10 months. I don&#8217;t recommend freezing the syrup or storing it at room temperature.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-10.jpg\" alt=\"two cocktail glasses with fruity drinks in them besides fresh strawberries and fresh blackberries\" class=\"wp-image-109853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-10.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-10-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-10-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-10-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-10-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-10-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/shrub-recipe_web-10-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More easy drink recipes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/blackberry-thyme-margaritas\/\">Blackberry Thyme Margarita<\/a> <\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/adrenal-cocktail\/\">Adrenal Cocktail<\/a> <\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/lavender-moscow-mule\/\">Lavender Moscow Mule<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>If you made this recipe, be sure to leave a comment and star rating below.
