Tarquin's Rhubarb and Raspberry Gin, 70 cl

Product Information

Try this over ice with a Sicilian lemon tonic and you may find you have a new summer classic on your hands. As these fruit gins need different times to mature, I make them separately and blend when they're ready. Not only is it vegan, not tested on animals, packaged in a recyclable bottle and made using 100% renewable energy, but it is formulated with 100% natural fragrances and 4 essential oils too.

We love the moreish, natural tasting strawberry flavour that comes through in this gin; it’s hard to believe that there’s absolutely no added sugar in this wonderfully sweet spirit. You can dial up the sweetness by pairing with lemonade – a great summer drink that’s sure to be a crowdpleaser, and a good alternative to Pimm's in the sunshine. Made with Scottish raspberries and balanced with punchy juniper, liquorice and coriander, this is a versatile and vibrant flavoured gin. We also tried the Sipsmith lemon drizzle gin, which was pleasingly tart and again delivered a punch of citrus flavour. This variety uses whole pineapples, which are spit-roasted with demerara sugar to give them a caramelised coating.

This unusual gin by Four Pillars is steeped in Yarra Valley Shiraz grapes for a distinctly fruity flavour that’s mouth-wateringly juicy. Make Your Tart Base: Beat 180g of softened butter and 40g of icing sugar together using a mixer, before adding 2 egg yolks and 1 tablespoon of water. Despite it packing a punch, the ale doesn’t overpower the rhubarb flavour in this liqueur and makes for a sweet but seriously refreshing summer drink. You can strain the liquor off through a muslin-lined sieve and transfer to a bottle, but I often just leave the rhubarb and booze in the jar and ladle it into drinks that way. Prepare Your Ingredients: Pour the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt into a large mixing bowl and stir.

The grapes are left to infuse in the gin for eight weeks before the juice is pressed and blended with yet more gin, taking on a wonderful dark purple hue in the process. Strain The Gin: Before drinking, strain the gin through a large sieve lined with a muslin cloth or coffee filters. This batch had about a month, but I wouldn't leave it much longer because the colour starts to get duller. The tangy, sweet plum notes combine with an aromatic Madagascan vanilla flavour, alongside orange peel, lemongrass, mulberry, lavender and pine buds. It makes the ultimate pink gin gift and it’s sure to impress your guests if you’re hosting a ginny get-together.We start by testing flavoured gin on its own to determine how vibrant and interesting the flavours are. Unlike the limoncello, where how much you add of the fruit and sugar, depends on the alcohol content of your vodka/grain alcohol. Made using fresh Kent strawberries, this flavoured gin is delicious with a classic or lemon tonic but can even be enjoyed on its own. If you fancy a breakfast with a festive twist, then these breakfast muffins are the perfect early-morning treat! Both the rhubarb flavour and colour are leached out into the gin and it becomes flavourful and beautiful pink colour.
