4 x GIN COCKTAILS TO GET ANY PARTY STARTED

We don’t know about you, but we are looking forward to the summer garden party season, and what’s a party without a good cocktail or two?  (These cocktails are suitable for anytime of the year! ) – With this in mind, we’ve created a cocktail guide straight from the Misty Isle.

THE MISTY ISLE SOUR

Putting a Misty Isle spin on a classic, this Gin Fizz provides a mix of sweet and sour flavours with a bubbly kick. A light and refreshing serve, this cocktail is very easy to make using our handcrafted Salty and Sweet gin which provides juniper notes in the foreground with hints of blueberry to complement the refreshing, tasty cocktail. To make a glass of this delicious cocktail, we recommend:

50ml of our Salty & Sweet Gin 

30ml freshly squeezed lemon or grapefruit juice

15ml sugar syrup

Ice

Soda water

Lemon (or grapefruit if you prefer) wedge to garnish

It is quick and easy to make, all you have to do is mix the first four ingredients in a cocktail shaker. Ensuring this has been shaken well, you should then strain the liquid into an ice-filled highball glass, topping it up with soda water. The final step is to garnish with your choice of a lemon or grapefruit wedge. Enjoy!

MISTY ISLE VODKA & CRANBERRY BLUSH

Are you having a dinner party, this is a sophisticated drink to delight your guests. Our triple gold award-winning vodka provides the perfect base for this cocktail having been carefully distilled using the crystal-clear waters from Skye, it is a crisp, clean, and smooth spirit. To serve six guests, you will need:

100ml each of our Misty Isle Vodka and Cointreau

300ml cranberry juice

200ml orange juice

Strips of peel from one or two limes

Crushed ice (for serving)

Firstly, pour both the Cointreau and our Misty Isle Vodka into a jug before adding the cranberry juice and orange juice. Stir well. Use a knife to peel strips from the lime(s) and add crushed ice to six glasses. Pour the mixed Misty Isle Vodka and Cranberry Blush over the ice and garnish each glass with a strip of lime peel. This is the perfect dinner party cocktail to treat your guests.

MISTY MIMOSA

We’ve got the perfect recipe to make use of your bottles of bubbly with a Misty Isle twist. This modern twist on a classic mimosa (or Bucks Fizz) recipe with Misty isle Classically Aromatic gin, and orange juice is sure to go down a treat. To make the perfect glass, you will need:
