Let’s take a closer look at the incredible ingredients in this cocktail:

Forty Spotted Tasmanian Classic Gin

First up is the stunning gin in July’s Gin of the Month box: Forty Spotted Tasmanian Classic Gin. And just look at that upside-down bottle! Deeply aromatic and delicious, it’s a very Aussie twist on a classic London Dry. And it’s bursting with special flavours… It’s got native pepperberry running through the expression, which is met by bright citrus on the palate as the makrut lime leaves open up and intermingle with the pepperberry notes. It’s one distinctive expression!

GUNNA Sundowner Lime Lemonade

We’re smitten with this thirst-quenching tipple too - just like the kangaroos of Australia, this sparkling concoction really packs a punch! GUNNA Sundowner Lime Lemonade is wonderfully refreshing thanks to the zingy limes, ripe lemons, and aromatic bitters. It’s hugely popular in Australia and after a few tastes, we can totally see why… You can buy 6 cans of GUNNA Sundowner Lime Lemonade on our Craft Gin Club online shop for just £5.99 right here!
