Gooseberry ginger beer

Method

1. Put the gooseberries, ginger, sugar and water in a pan and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Gently simmer for 15 minutes or until syrupy, then strain. When cool, bottle and store in the fridge (see tip).
2. For each cocktail, pour 50ml gooseberry syrup in a glass, then add 1 tbsp ginger cordial and 25ml gin. Top up with pale ale, then serve.
