Ingredients

  • MIXED-BERRY COMPOTE:
  • 2 cups Berries, washed (4 oz blueberries, 6 oz raspberries, 6 oz blackberries)
  • 1/2 cup Water, filtered
  • 1/2 cup Raw Cane Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice, freshly squeezed juice (equivalent to 1/2 of a large lemon)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the fruit compote: To a small saucepan, add the sugar, water, fruit and lemon juice and stir to combine.

  4. Assemble the ice cream shake: To the bottom of each glass, add a couple tablespoons of the fruit compote.
  5. Blend: To a blender, add the club soda and ice cream and blend well. Add the Empress Gin and some additional compote and blend until just incorporated.
  6. Divide: Equally divide the Mixed-Berry Ice Cream Shake among two glasses.
  7. Optional: Top with coconut whipped cream. Enjoy immediately!
