The Mrs. Miller Shrub is a classic gin-tonic with a twist! Gin’s strong flavor is paired with the mildly sweet elderflower-apple-lime vinegar and refined using tonic, mint leaves and lime!
This shrub was named after Anistatia Miller. She is the wife of Jared Brown, the inventor of Sipsmith gin. It’s therefore no surprise that there’s gin in this recipe! The couple live just outside London where they cultivate several varieties of fruit, vegetables and herbs for creating refreshing cocktails.
A shrub is a cocktail based on vinegar, soda water and/ or fresh ingredients such as mint, raspberry, lemon or basil. These recipes have been specially developed for Oil & Vinegar by Tess Posthumus – better known as world’s best female bartender! She selected her favorite vinegars for making shrubs.
