Empress Elderflower Spanish Gin and Tonic
My friend Erin and I have been swooning over this purple gin for sometime, and we finally purchased it to make some epic purple cocktails!
Makes 1 cocktail:
Ingredients:
- 2oz Empress Gin (I actually used Victoria Indigo Gin, it's the same but less expensive)
- 4-5oz elderflower tonic (I used Fever Tree brand)
- 2 pink grapefruit slices
- 10 juniper berries
- 1 rosemary sprig
Instructions:
- Add ice to the glass.
- Squeeze 1 slice of grapefruit into glass and discard.
- Add the other grapefruit slice and juniper berries.
- Pour gin into glass. Then tonic.
- Stir.
- Add Rosemary sprig to garnish.
*I'm honestly not sure how much flavor the juniper berries give to the cocktail. I plan to do a side by side comparison of one with and without at some point...
