A Shrub Cocktail Template

Shrub is a fruity, acidic, concentrated syrup that can be used to flavor carbonated water, iced tea, lemonades, cocktails, or mocktails.  In recent years, bartenders and hobby mixologists have embraced shrub as an alternative to the sour element in cocktails.

The term “shrub” is derived from the Arabic word sharāb, meaning “to drink”.  The American version has its origins in the 17th century, when vinegar was used to preserve berries and other fruits.  ​

​1 1/2 - 2 oz. spirit of choice (Vodka, rum, tequila, and gin work particularly well, but try it with anything!)
1/2 - 1 oz. Tait Farm Shrub, any flavor!
1/2 - 1 oz. fresh citrus (lemon, lime, grapefruit, etc....)
2 dashes cocktail bitters (optional, but fun to experiment with)
