Rose Gin Fizz Cocktail ft House of Elrick Gin
House of Elrick gin is a spirit that originates from Aberdeenshire in the Scottish Highlands.
Being the only spirit made with the freshest water from the Lock Ness it contains 8 handpicked botanicals to create a fresh and floral yet earthy profile.
Being the only spirit made with the freshest water from the Lock Ness it contains 8 handpicked botanicals to create a fresh and floral yet earthy profile.
Botanicals such as; juniper, coriander seed, angelica root, citrus peel, built around a core of heather, pink peppercorns, sweet fennel and rose petals.
The creators of House of Elrick gin believe quality over quantity and there for the gin is distilled by hand in batches of 600 bottles per run which means they can maintain the control of every bottle that leaves their distillery.
When creating a cocktail for this gin I wanted something that would complement the aromatic and fresh profile and embrace those bold infusions of flavours.
After tasting the gin neat and testing numerous garnishes to see which would work best to create a summer cocktail I instantly fell for a floral and fresh taste creating… the Rose Gin Fizz cocktail.
