The nose greets you with clear aromas of ripe strawberry and raspberry. On the palate, Stretton’s Wild Berries Gin delivers a smooth, medium-bodied experience with a refreshing citrus edge. A subtle hint of juniper maintains the classic gin character beneath the lush fruit layers. It finishes with a crisp, peppery note that leaves the palate feeling refreshed. This versatile spirit shines when you serve it over crushed ice with premium tonic or lemonade.
To fully appreciate the berry infusion, fill a large balloon glass with plenty of ice. Pour a generous double measure of gin and top it with chilled tonic water. Garnish the drink with fresh blueberries and a slice of grapefruit to highlight the botanical blend. This combination creates a beautiful, purple-hued cocktail that is perfect for sunny afternoons and outdoor gatherings.
