We still love a G&amp;T, let\u2019s not forget, but some evenings require a walk on a slightly wilder side.<\/p>\n<p>These drinks have garnishes that take advantage of the fresh mint that is abundant at this time of year. Both are elegant, citrussy, and, above all, different.<\/p>\n<p>The Golden Hour Cocktail is simple and surprising whilst the Passionfruit Southside uses this unique fruit to enhance the astonishing dark berry notes that are naturally present in Brockmans: juniper berries, blueberries and blackberries. These dark berries are given a starring role in the noble tradition of the finest gin making and add complexity to even simple ingredients.<\/p>\n<h4>Golden Hour<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18275 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Brockmans-golden-hour.jpg\" alt=\"Brockmans golden hour\" width=\"429\" height=\"286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Brockmans-golden-hour.jpg 429w, https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Brockmans-golden-hour-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Brockmans-golden-hour-150x100.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 429px) 100vw, 429px\" \/><\/h4>\n<p>Ingredients<br \/>\n60ml Brockmans Gin<br \/>\n45ml Grapefruit Juice<br \/>\n15ml Freshly squeezed lemon juice<br \/>\n20 ml Simple syrup<br \/>\nGarnish: Mint leaf, grapefruit peel<\/p>\n<p>Method<\/p>\n<p>Combine all ingredients into a shaker with ice.
