    Black Summer

    1 1/2 ounce of gin

    1 ounce of Smoked Black Cherry Syrup

    1/2 ounce of lime

    2/3 C. Frozen Dark Black Cherries

    Splash of sparkling water

    ½ cup- ¾ cups ice

    Blend and serve with lime wheel and dark cherry garnish

    Ube Glaze Scones

    2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

    1/2 tsp salt

    1 tbs baking powder

    1/3 cup ube syrup

    1 tbs vanilla extract

    1 egg

    1/2 cup milk (full fat cow milk, and full-fat oat milk work best, you need fatty milk)

    3/4 cup unsalted butter (frozen)

    Ube Glaze

    1/2 cup powdered sugar

    2 tbs of water (may need more)

    1 tsp ube syrup

    2 tbs unsalted butter - melted

    Instructions

    Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a baking mat with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat; set aside.

    In a stand-alone mixer fitted with a paddle attachment mix together the flour, salt, and baking powder.

    Blend or grate frozen butter. Add shredded butter and mix on low-speed until coarse crumbs form - careful not to over-mix.

    In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, Ube syrup and vanilla then add it to the mixer and mix until dough comes together. It will be crumbly.

    Flour a clean service and kneed dough just a bit until it comes together. Form it into a circle about 1 inch in thickness. Use a knife or pizza cutter to cut scones into 8 wedges. Place on baking sheet and sprinkle with granulated sugar. Bake for 10-14 minutes or until edges are slightly golden. Remove from oven and place on a cooling rack to cool.

    While scones are cooling, add all the glaze ingredients into a bowl and whisk - glaze will be slightly thick but should drizzle off a spoon. Use a spoon to spread glaze over cooled scones. Let stand until glaze is set.
