Hampers and Gin Cocktails for Mother’s Day and Easter revels<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Mother’s Day: Sunday 14th<\/sup> March 20201; Easter Sunday: 4th<\/sup> April 2021<\/h4>\n

Celebrate Mother’s Day, Easter and the start of Spring with some delicious gin cocktails.\u00a0 We bring you some ideas from Brockmans Gin which beautifully combine \"brockmansthe botanicals from across the world that gives this distinctive gin its elegant taste mingled with local seasonal produce.<\/p>\n

First up though, if you can’t spend these Spring events as normal with friends or loved ones, is a gift that is rather more memorable than the ubiquitous flowers or chocolate egg.<\/p>\n

For those who deserve something special, consider sending a hamper. Better still, a gin-themed hamper. Even better, choose the pick of the crop: a Brockmans Gin hamper.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Limited Edition Brockmans Hamper contains a 70cl bottle of Brockmans Gin and 2 x 250ml bottles of Schweppes Tonic Water as well as a selection of barware.\u00a0\u00a0 This is all encased in a black basket-work hamper, ideal for picnics or storage later. The hamper is exclusively available from www.brockmansgin.com\/find-us\/<\/a>\u00a0 at \u00a3145.00 including P&P (UK only).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That’s the gifts sorted out.<\/p>\n

Now let’s turn to you.\u00a0 Often, cocktails are sweet which isn’t always what we crave. For a savoury take on gin cocktails, these concoctions make the most of new season carrots, coriander, beetroot and spring flowers.<\/p>\n
