Product Information

So taste the gin at intervals, and once you’re happy with the flavour, filter out all the botanicals using a sieve.

Serve the drink chilled but not blended by mixing the ingredients in a cocktail shaker or tall glass filled with ice, shaking vigorously, then straining itinto a glass.Herbs and spices like vanilla, thyme, lavender, mint, cardamom or chilli may only need a few hours steeping in the gin, whereas fruits, strongly flavoured vegetables and berries will probably be best left for a week or two, maybe even up to a month. Inspired, we came up with a recipe for creating your very own clementine gin liqueur at home - perfect for bottling and labelling as a lovely handmade gin gift for the gin-lover in your life! Just with the blend of bananas and cream of coconut alone, you can already tell how ridiculously delicious it is.

You can add chocolate syrup for a true happy hour sweet treat, or up the tropical taste with fresh pineapple. Once you’ve added your desired flavors and tastes, it is time to make your very strong spirit drinkable. Waragi derives its name from "war gin", as the British expatriates in the 1950s and 1960s referred to the distilled spirit known in Luganda language as enguli.

There’s certainly no shortage of flavoured gins in the supermarkets these days – everything from violets and geraniums to blood oranges and grapefruits make their way into the staunchly British spirit.
