Zesty notes
To make a sensational summer swig, simply take a glass filled with ice, add 45mL of gin and top with your favourite tonic water. Add a pinch of chopped chilli, some coriander leaves and finish with a squeeze of lime juice.

Fun & fruity
Enhance the notes of juniper in your favourite gin by putting berries in your ice tray before using the cubes to create a sweet and sour G&T. As the fruit pops slowly melt the nectar will shine through the beverage.
Festive spice
Lending a festive spin, cinnamon quills are a delicious way to accentuate gin’s botanical aroma. The flavour lingers on the palate while adding some festive spice into your life.
