Are you wondering how to improve your cocktail-making game? Perhaps you’re planning a special BBQ or garden party and want to find a refreshing, fun drink that’s simple to make but absolutely delicious.
Thanks to the team at Eagle One Gin, we have a perfect duo of cocktails for you to try at home - ideal for the gin lovers amongst us.
The Lanson Mule
40ml of Eagle One Summer Gin
25ml Lime Juice
15ml of simple syrup
100ml of Ginger Beer (try a light ginger beer to not overpower the gin taste)
Mint
In a shaker, add gin, lime juice and simple syrup, and shake for 20 seconds. Take your glass, add ice and strain the liquid from the shaker.
Top with the ginger beer - don’t shake it, or it will explode - and garnish with mint and slices of lime.
English Garden
40ml of Eagle One Summer Gin
Two strips of cucumber
10 mint leaves
20ml of St. Germain (Elderflower liqueur)
100ml Apple Juice
In a shaker, add the gin, St. Germain, mint leaves and cucumber strips (use a peeler). Shake for 20 seconds.
In a glass, add ice and strain from the shaker. Top with the apple juice and garnish with a strip of cucumber and mint leaves.
If you don’t have St Germain, swap it out for elderflower cordial. This will make it sweeter and less alcoholic.
