Treguddick Raspberry & Bay Shrub

Treguddick Raspberry & Bay Shrub

This is the shrub that looks innocent until it starts making excellent points.

We macerate fresh raspberries with freshly picked bay leaves from Treguddick, then combine them with British sugar and vinegar to create a shrub that is bright, red-fruited, gently herbal and properly grown-up.

The raspberries give the immediate fruit: vivid, tart, generous. The bay leaf sits behind them like a well-dressed botanical chaperone, adding a green, aromatic dryness that keeps the drink from wandering off into jam.

Juicy raspberry first, then a savoury bay-leaf lift, finishing sharp, clean and lightly herbal.

Best with:
- Sparkling water,
- Mediterranean tonic,
- Ginger ale,
- A squeeze of orange or lime
