Gin and Roses
The two drinks which perhaps we most associate with a British summer are gin and rosé wine. This cocktail recipe from Brockmans Gin is a marriage made in heaven as it combines both of these favourite tipples in a crisp, cold, sensuous cocktail.
This 40% ABV English gin is aromatic and intriguing. Brockmans has notes of blueberries, blackberries, Valencian orange peel and other summery botanicals such as coriander and angelica. Combine this distinctively delicious gin with ice and the scents and tastes of roses and you have a perfect concoction when only an iced cocktail will do.
