About The Russian Spring Punch
The Russian Spring Punch was created in London, England by Dick Bradsell in the 1980s. He claims not to remember which bar he was working at at the time, but tells the story of how he created the recipe for personal friends wishing to hold a cocktail party while minimizing the amount of money they had to spend on alcohol. Participants were provided with the vodka, cassis, simple syrup and lemon juice, and were asked to bring their own sparkling wine.
Ingredients:
1 oz. Vodka
1½ oz. Creme de Cassis
½ oz. Simple Syrup
1 oz. Lemon Juice
Fill Sparkling Wine
Garnish with Blackberries or Lemon Slice.
