If you’re a gin enthusiast, you’ve probably tried a variety of gin-based cocktails and mixes. But have you ever tried gin liqueurs? These bold and flavourful spirits offer a delicious twist on traditional gin, making them a refreshing addition to cocktails mixers, or even enjoyed on their own. If you are ready to explore the world of gin liqueurs, read on for our full guide on how to elevate your gin drinking experience with these super smooth, easy drinking spirits.
What are Gin Liqueurs?
Our Gin liqueurs are made using our Multi Award Winning Sweet Potato London Dry Gin base and packed full of carefully selected natural ingredients to reach the bold and delicious flavours for a taste that is sure to delight. The lower alcohol content makes gin liqueurs an excellent choice for those who prefer a milder drink or for those who are trying to reduce their alcohol intake without sacrificing taste or quality.
How to Drink Gin Liqueur
When it comes to choosing a gin liqueur, it’s all about personal taste. These unique botanical spirits come in a variety of delicious guises, such as raspberry, orange and Lavender. All of which can be combined with a range of mixers or enjoyed within a refreshing cocktail.
Gin & Tonic
One simple yet popular way to enjoy gin liqueurs is to mix them with tonic water or soda water and ice for a refreshing drink that is quick and easy to make. This simple recipe is particularly perfect for those who are new to these spirits and want to familiarise themselves with the flavours, as the flavours of the gin are brought to the forefront and not overshadowed by the tonic. Simply fill a glass with ice, add a measure of gin liqueur, and top up with tonic water before stirring gently and adding a subtle garnish to complement the flavour of the gin. For those who prefer a sweeter drink, or for those who find tonic water too bitter, tonic water can also be swapped out for lemonade, soda water, or flavoured mixers.
Gin Liqueur Cocktails
Gin liqueurs also work well in a variety of cocktails, from classic drinks like the Bramble, to more modern creations like the English Garden. They are a popular way to add an injection of flavour to gin cocktails, and their lower alcohol content makes them a great option for lighter, more refreshing cocktails to enjoy during the day. Substitute gin liqueurs for regular gin in classic cocktails, combine multiple flavours, or experiment with different liqueurs to create a unique signature cocktail.
