When we purchased our house, we had no idea that would join a community at the same time. In November, we dedicated a legacy walk to those neighbors that have contributed to the betterment of our community. A Floral Park Walk of Fame right in the heart of our community garden. Some are still with us, others are gone, both have transformed our neighborhood into a tight knit community. We honored the original founders, those that continue to contribute, and have left room for the future contributors. So here’s a little cheers to the past, the present, and the future!
Blackberry Lemon Sparkler
- 1 1/2 oz gin
- 1/2 oz simple syrup
- 1/2 oz blackberry/lemon puree (below)
- Champagne or prosecco
Mix together ice, gin, simple syrup, and puree. Stir until combined. Strain into a champagne glass, and top with champagne.
Blackberry/Lemon Puree
- 8 oz blackberries
- Juice of two lemons
In a blender, puree berries and lemon juice until smooth. Pass through a sieve to remove the seeds.
What a great idea! The Sparkler doesn’t sound bad, either!
