BLACKBERRY COBBLER OLD FASHION
Brian Latten-Ford & Brittany Colley| F&B Director + Mixologist | Hilton Charlotte
While discussing this challenge, my team, and I were talking about how an old fashion, a very classic drink, seems to be very popular at our bar. We also talked about how cobblers were very popular in the south as we are always serving them on buffets. So we decided to experiment with different types of fruit that are used for cobblers. At first peach cobbler is the one that resonated with us, but it didn’t seem unique enough. We happened to run across some blackberries and the light bulb went off, this would serve to be the unique quality and experience that would take this drink to the next level. Not too bold and not sweet, it proved to be the one that would stand out from the rest. One of our esteemed mixologist. Brittany Colley, came up with the ingredients and handcrafted it, giving it a classic feel with a blackberry cobbler twist.
