Method

Hide images
step 1
To make the syrup, add 10 sage leaves (10) to a pan with 100ml water (100 ml) and 100g sugar (100 g). Heat until the sugar has dissolved and the sage flavour has infused into the syrup. Allow to cool, then discard the sage leaves.
step 2
In the bottom of a tall glass or copper mug, muddle four blackberries (4). Add your sage syrup, lime juice (1) and vodka (50 ml).
step 3
Fill the glass with ice (1 handful), top with ginger beer (125 ml) and stir to combine. Garnish with a sage leaf (1), blackberry or two and piece of stem ginger (1 piece).
step 4
To make the crumble bites, line a square tin with baking paper, making sure there’s enough spare around the sides to lift your crumble bites out after cooking.
step 5
Tip your crumble mix (1 pack) into a bowl along with the finely chopped sage (10). Use your fingertips to rub together the crumble mix with the cold cubes of butter (100 g), until the whole lot looks like breadcrumbs.
step 6
Add around three quarters of your crumble mixture to the baking tin and press down. Chill the tin and the remaining mix in the fridge for 20 minutes.
step 7
Heat the oven to 170°C fan. Once up to temperature, bake the base for 20 minutes.
step 8
While it’s baking, make the filling. Mix your blackberries (350 g), sugar (45 g), lemon juice (1/2) and cornflour (1 tsp) in a bowl.
step 9
Once your base has had its first bake, top with the blackberry mixture, finish with the remaining crumble and pop back in the oven for 40-45 minutes.
step 10
Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool for a couple of hours before cutting into squares to enjoy with a cuppa – or even better, your blackberry and sage ginger fizz cocktail.
