Yum.

A lover of gin?

Well then listen up!

We are forever thinking up the perfect cocktails to whisk together ahead of a night out with the girls and the one that forever springs to mind, is with gin of course.

The most popular spirit at the moment, we are major lovers of the tipple here in Her and this cocktail is sure to get you in the mood for dancing this weekend.

Founder of Irish Jawbox gin, Gerry White says: “Gin has become the centre-piece of the cocktail scene, not just here in Ireland but across the globe.”

And not only is it perfect for the weekend, this cocktail we are getting you to stir up is also ideal for a Valentines/Galentines Day with a gorgeous pink colour. Did you also know that juniper is the main botanical of all gins, noted for being highly aromatic and often considered as the most sensuous of all berries… very fitting.

This cocktail is also easy to make and can be shaken up in minutes meaning little work with serious results… just how we like it.

So how do you create this perfect cocktail? Simple.

This is what you need:

Ingredients

50ml Jawbox Small Batch Gin

10ml Lemon juice

5ml Grenadine

10ml Sweet Vermouth

1 Egg white

Redcurrants to garnish

Method

Dry shake all the ingredients for about 30 seconds. Add ice and shake again until cold. Double strain into a coupe glass and garnish with redcurrants.

Job!
