Gin
Gin is a distilled alcoholic drink that derives its predominant flavour from juniper berries. It can be produced in subtly different ways, from a wide range of herbal ingredients, giving rise to a number of distinct styles and brands.
The Modern Evolution of Gin
Labelled as one of the UK’s favourite alcoholic beverages this decade, gin is a carefully balanced spirit with a strong, bitter taste. Originally created by alchemists as a medicinal drink, gin has somewhat maintained its link to health, as a low-calorie spirit.
While traditional gin is still popular, coloured and flavoured gins have flourished in recent years, resulting in high demand and reaching a new demographic. The crystal clear colour of gin was originally used to determine the quality. However, coloured and flavoured gins have been credited with the rise in popularity.
A Drink for any Occasion
The classic gin and tonic is still one of the most common drinks you will find at a midsummer’s afternoon tea or a boozy brunch. The spirit is also added to a variety of cocktails, which are perfect to drink at an evening bar. These include gin fizz, negroni, Tom Collins and the signature martini.
Although gin is sometimes seen as a summer beverage, it’s great all year round!
