Gin & Tonic is always a favourite drink on a hot summer’s day. But add blood orange, and voila! You have a moody, dramatic cocktail starring one of our favourite winter fruits.
Now, we’d never accuse anyone of being overly dramatic, but we think a touch of the theatrical makes for great fun, and even greater drinks. If you’re feeling a little more special than standard G&Ts, we highly recommend this aromatic blend with a wedge of deep, dark blood orange flesh. It will put you in a better mood from the first sip.
