Dick Bradsell’s second most famous creation, after the Espresso Martini, the Bramble was, he said, inspired by the wild blackberries he used to pick on the Isle of Wight as a child.
Bramble
Espresso Martini
By now everyone has heard the story of how it originated when a unnamed model asked for: “something to wake me up, then fuck me up.” Who it was, Dick Bradsell took to the great jump in the sky.
Treacle
Another fine drink of Dick Bradsell’s devising. When he used to make a Treacle in the Colony Room Club, he used cheap pasteurised apple juice, in a carton, from the Somerfield supermarket, in Berwick Street.
