It's almost time to say goodbye to June's amazing Warner Edwards Honeybee Gin, a bottle that's been a bona fide hit with our members! From tasty cocktails to scrummy recipes, there's been a lot of creativity with this incredible spirit - including this gin-soaked 'Fernhill Mess' recipe.

Fernhill House Care Home near Worcester joined Craft Gin Club upon its opening in the spring, and in addition to enjoying all the delicious craft gins we've sent out, their creative hospitality manager, Chris Williams, has also gotten creative by creating some seriously mouthwatering recipes with the spirits.

The Fernhill Mess is his take on the classic Eton Mess, and has a delicious Warner Edwards Honeybee Gin kick to it!

If you're lucky enough to have any of your Honeybee Gin left (or want to test out the recipe with your own favourite bottle!), check out this tasty recipe below:
