Chapter 10 | Winter Warmers

This week we’re back with favourite subject - cocktail recipes. Read on for two concoctions crafted with Lantic Winter Foraged Gin. You’re welcome!

LANTIC SEAHORSE TAIL

🍂 50ml Lantic Winter Gin

🫗 4 dashes Angostura bitters

🫚 150ml FeverTree Ginger Ale

🍯 1tsp Honey

🍊 Orange peel twirl

🌿 Pinch of dried Seaweed (optional)

We call this one a Seahorse Tail, a play on the classic Horses Neck. Usually made with Bourbon but is spot on with our Winter Foraged Gin. We love the twist.

Shake your gin together with the ginger ale & a teaspoon of honey. If you have it, a pinch of dried seaweed creates a sweet, salty contrast to the spiciness of the ginger ale.

Pour into a highball filled with ice & splash the Angostura bitters on top - it will float creating a cool visual effect.

Garnish with orange peel, and if you’re feeling fancy curl it into a wheel like - you’ve guessed it - a seahorse tail.

WINTER SOLSTICE MARTINI

🍂 75ml Lantic Winter Gin

🍷 15ml Fino Sherry

🍐 15ml Spiced Pear Liqueur

🍊 A dash of Orange Bitters

🧊 Ice (for stirring)

🌿 A sprig of fresh Thyme, or Orange Peel

🍯 A drop of honey if you need the lift! (optional)

Chill a Martini or Coupe glass. While cooling, mix the Winter Gin, sherry, liqueur and bitters (and honey, if you’re using it) together in a shaker, then stir with the ice for about 20 second until cold and a little diluted. Strain the mix into the chilled glass and garnish with your choice of botanical.
