Spooky Halloween Cocktail: Bates Bramble

Halloween is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than with a chilling cocktail inspired by a classic thriller? Introducing the "Bates Bramble," a ghoulishly delicious drink echoing the eerie vibes of Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho" and the infamous Bates Motel.

Bates Bramble

1. Shake It Up: Combine the gin, lemon juice, and raspberry simple syrup in a cocktail shaker. Add ice and give it a good shake.

3. Pour and Top: Strain the shaken cocktail into the glass over the crushed ice. Finish by topping it with Crème De Cassis for a rich, dark layer.
