[ad gifted] Need some #ginspiration for #worldginday tomorrow? Well I’ve found some surprisingly in the nettles! @stirlingdistillery make a great gin using local and sustainably foraged nettles. Along with the nettles and required juniper their gin has citrus peels and basil, which combine to create a unique and enjoyable gin. The nose is delightfully juniper forward and fresh and green from the citrus and herb notes. On the palate you taste the citrus and juniper first and then a more savoury herbaceousness, before moving through to pepper that lingers in the finish. The mouthfeel starts light but ends with a ‘sting’ 😉 from the pepper and a long finish. Serves: I’ve tried this gin several ways (swipe to see #ginspiration!): 1️⃣ G&T with @fevertreemixers Mediterrrean tonic - light enough to let the gin sing, and with herbal notes to complement. A garnish of orange works well here. 2️⃣ Summer spritz inspiration! 🍹 Served with @fevertreemixers blood orange soda and garnished with orange and herbs (I used rosemary, but obviously basil works here too!) add a splash of your favourite aperitivo 😍 3️⃣ in a mini martini! 🍸 with @worldmartiniday hot on the heels of @worldginday I had to try a martini too! 4️⃣ one I didn’t get around to trying, but you definitely should - a basil smash! With such versatility and a beautifully decorated bottle, you need to try this gin for yourself!
[ad - gifted] ℍ𝕒𝕡𝕡𝕪 𝟙𝟝𝕥𝕙 𝕓𝕚𝕣𝕥𝕙𝕕𝕒𝕪 @sacredgin @sacredgin are celebrating with a whole new look and bottle, same great gin inside! The coils on this bottle represent Sacred’s glass distillation process and it being 200g lighter than the original bottle (& made in the U.K.) highlight @sacredgin focus on sustainability. I know where I will be keeping this new bespoke bottle - in the freezer as per the cocktail suggestion on the new label! 🍸🍸🍸😉 #sacredgin #londondrygin #londongin #15years #newbottle #sustainability #martinitime #martini🍸 @martiniclubuk

Are you ready for ⓅⒶⓃⒸⒶⓀⒺ ⒹⒶⓎ?! 🥞🥞🥞 In the U.K. Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday) or Shrove Tuesday is known as pancake day - the traditional way to eat as much of the stuff that you cut out for Lent (e.g. sugar!) - the pancakes are the delivery system 😂 I’ve meal prepped my pancakes for tomorrow morning with peanut butter and jam (post gym!) but I if you are having them for dinner or dessert why not add some gin?! Check out my gin inspired recipes and topping suggestions over on the blog!

[ad - gifted product] Rather than doing dry January or veganuary, I’m doing try-anuary (try January!) and only *trying* to be good with less drinking, more vegan dishes and of course trying out new things This isn’t a vegan dish but it is a something new to try - a one pot dish that uses up any leftover cheese from the festive period - with only one pot to wash up what could be better?! To make this one pot cheesy pasta dish I started out making a roux with flour, butter & veggie stock in my @ourplace Perfect Pot When the flour is cooked out I added all the odds and ends of cheese in the fridge that haven’t been eaten yet (cut up small so they melted quickly!) As soon as it was a molten pot of cheesy goodness I added @zenb_uk Pasta Agile (gifted) this pasta is a healthy twist on a regular pasta: 1️⃣ it’s made from yellow peas 2️⃣ it’s gluten free! 3️⃣ it’s high in protein 4️⃣ it’s also high in fibre And the Agile is quick cook pasta shape - so you don’t need a separate pot to boil it in - just mix in and cook in the sauce, covered, for 2 minutes (with a ratio of 2:1 pasta to liquid) I finished the pasta with freshly chopped parsley (that also needed using up) and a sprinkle of truffle pasta (ohlala!) It’s just the comfort food needed for the current gloomy and rainy UK weather! ❓Will you be trying this recipe this January❓ #whatskatiedoingblog #zenb #zenbpasta #pastaagile #onepotcheesepasta #onepotrecipe #onepotrecipes #perfectpot #cheeseplease #trufflemacncheese #tryjanuary #usingupleftovers
The set includes a bottle of their famous pre-mixed negroni and 2 of their rose liqueur glasses to create their perfect serve. The Pink negroni is Asterley Brother’s seasonal twist on a white negroni with Schofield’s Vermouth, Cabby’s Gin, pink grapefruit, rose & gentian liqueur (and it’s divine!). When you’re ready to serve, rinse your martini glasses with a wash of the Sacred English Dry Vermouth and discard the rest, then top up the glass with Sacred Gin straight out of the freezer. Included in the bundle is a bottle of Gibson Edition Copperhead Gin (enhanced and redistilled with pickling spices), savoury semi-dry Gibson Edition Del Professore Vermouth, personalised custom made nickel martini glass, branded side bowl for onions, jar with signature double pickled onions, branded cocktails napkins, porcupine cocktails skewers and step by step recipe of “How to make an Ultimate Gibson Martini”.
Broadly speaking there are some key ways to serve Pink Gins: gin and a mixer (e.g. tonic, lemonade or ginger ale), in sour cocktail with lemon juice and sugar syrup, topped up with Prosecco, as a replacement for ‘regular gin’ in classic gin cocktails and neat! Stir all ingredients with ice and strain into ice-filled tumbler or serve without ice in a coupe glass. This cocktail results in a pink cocktail though, balancing the fruit flavours with lemon juice and fresh basil for a refreshing serve. Serve Warner’s Pink Berry over ice with a splash of Mediterranean tonic and garnish with raspberries and mint.
Place the cooling rack over the rice mixture, lay the fish on top, season with salt and pepper and place the baking dish over low heat. Seal the dish tightly with tinfoil (the tinfoil should not touch the fish if possible), leave over the heat for another 1-2 minutes, then turn off the heat and leave the fish to smoke for 8-10 minutes or until tender. Remove the fish, season, add a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice Atlantic Spirits were inspired to use the sea in a savoury recipe with their gin, and their Thai basil gin makes a fab twist on the classis Moule Mariniere. Meanwhile take the pan you were using and add the sliced mushrooms and shallots and saute over a low heat until they soften, c. 3 minutes
Spoon the mixture into the cake tin & bake for 45 minutes until firm and springy and a skewer comes out clean. Add a spoonful of the flour mix to the butter mixture and combine, then add a spoonful of the soaked fruit mixture and combine. Make the brownie mix up according to packet instructions (they usually ask you to add an egg and oil to the dry mix), but don’t add any water. Serve with a garnish of Hayman’s Sloe Gin-sweetened cream, flaked chocolate, and drizzle over the remaining coulis As we are a month away from Lent starting, why not get prepared for Shrove Tuesday with these pancakes, which use both gin and tonic in the pancake mix and syrup to drizzle over:
