The History of the Wild Berri Bramble 

The original Bramble cocktail was created in London in 1984 by legendary London bartender Dick Bradsell. 

Wild Berri Bramble, on the other hand, was created in the summer of 2024 in Stockholm, Sweden by Ricardo “Rico” Dynan (Bartender and Absolut Global Brand Ambassador).

Rico was making a classic Bramble for an episode of Absolut Drinks with Rico and after making this version, he made a Vodka variation using Absolut Wild Berri. And, well, it was a hit!

Tips for Making the Perfect Wild Berri Bramble

  • Add the Blackberry Liqueur Last
    In the video, you’ll notice that when Rico makes a Wild Berri Bramble, he adds the Blackberry Liqueur after pouring the cocktail mixture into the Glass. Whereas for the Bramble, he pours the Blackberry Liqueur into the Glass first before the cocktail mixture.

    For the Wild Berri Bramble, he uses the back of a Bar Spoon to gently pour the Blackberry Liqueur over the Crushed Ice. This technique allows the Liqueur to slowly trickle down into the drink, creating a beautiful visual effect.

  • Fresh Lemon Juice only!
    When life gives you lemons, press fresh Lemon Juice. There’s no comparison between store-bought and freshly squeezed. If there’s only one tip you should know it’s that to elevate your cocktail to bar-level standards, you should always use fresh Lemon Juice. 

Variations of a Wild Berri Bramble Cocktail

  • Vodka Bramble
    This is another Vodka variation of the Bramble, this time using Absolut Vodka instead of Absolut Wild Berri. This variation allows the Blackberry Liqueur and fresh Lemon Juice to take center stage. Highly recommended for those who prefer a milder and less Juniper-forward taste.

Serving and Garnish Ideas for a Wild Berri Bramble

For both this Wild Berri Bramble and the classic Gin-based Bramble, Rico recommends using a short glass such as a Tumbler, somewhere between a Highball and a Rocks Glass. Check out this article to learn more about different glass types.

A Tumbler will perfectly accommodate the Ice Cubes or, in this case, the Crushed Ice. It also helps accentuate the cocktail’s stunning purple hues. 

To garnish your Wild Berri Bramble cocktail, we recommend two whole Blackberries placed on top of the Crushed Ice, together with a Lemon half-moon.
