Long & Refreshing
We were intrigued to try this curious riff on the classic G&T. The mesmerising visual effect of the two liquids mixing is stunning. You can’t beat that wonderful coffee hit that comes with a fresh espresso. We played around with a couple of different syrups including one made with rosehips and settled on lavender and lemon as it brought a welcome floral sweetness to the drink. The savoury wild botanicals in the gin bring balance to the sweet elements.
