Raspberry Lemon Thyme Smash (A cocktail to get you smashed...)

What do Raspberries like to do after work?
They have jam sessions.

Occasionally, we like to have cocktail hour at our house.  This is a tasty, did I say TASTY, summer cocktail that uses some fresh berries and a pinch of herbs from the garden (yay garden!).

Here's what you need (per cocktail):
6 raspberries
some thyme from the garden
ice
1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons of simple syrup
2-3 tablespoons of gin



Wash berries.  No, you don't need that many.

Add 6 raspberries, thyme and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to a cocktail shaker. 

Muddle together.

Add Ice, 2 tablespoons of simple syrup, and 2-3 tablespoons of gin.

Shake it up.  Dump it in a glass.  Enjoy

Drink.  Make another.  (and/or/and another)  Then cook dinner. ;)
