Harrogate gin company shares Easter cocktail recipes
Slingsby Gin (www.spiritofharrogate.co.uk), the award-winning Yorkshire gin brand inspired by its spa-town heritage and enjoyed around the world, has created cocktails perfect for Easter celebrations this year. The cocktails, created by Slingsby’s in-house mixologist, include a seasonal spin on 2022’s best-selling cocktail, the Negroni, and a Slingsby Easter Shake, celebrating Slingsby Rhubarb Gin.
Slingsby’s award-winning Rhubarb Gin was named Britain’s favourite Rhubarb gin in 2022, and the gin combines the sweetness of fresh Yorkshire rhubarb and the bitter tang of the pink grapefruit citrus base. Slingsby creates its famous Rhubarb Gin using its London Dry Gin as a base, which is crafted using locally sourced fruits and botanicals, and masterfully infuses it with the finest Yorkshire rhubarb sourced from the famous ‘Rhubarb Triangle’.
The Slingsby Chocolate Negroni showcases the Slingsby London Dry Gin, which features 24 carefully selected botanicals, with an initial burst of refreshing citrus giving way to juniper, sweet cicely and Taylor’s of Harrogate jasmine-scented green tea.
The recipes are the perfect way to celebrate over Easter, combining gin and chocolate to create indulgent cocktails to share with family and friends.
