May has to be one of our favourite months of the year, not least because it always brings with it wonderful songbirds, longer days and the promise of warmer weather to come.

It’s the perfect time to whip up a G&T or two and to soak up some sunshine in the garden or countryside, especial if the G&T in question is our May 2021 Perfect G&T.

Simple yet devastatingly elegant, this bright G&T recipe pairs the stunning Mediterranean-inspired flavours of our exclusive May 2021 Gin of the Month, Cuckoo Solace Craft Gin Club Special Edition, with the incredibly pure and clean tonic tones of Marlish English Tonic Water. Finished with dried lemon slices and juniper berries, there’s no better G&T to enjoy in the month of May.

Craft Gin Club members can find everything they need to create this gin-credible serve in their May 2021 Gin of the Month box!

Marlish has a whole range of incredible mixers that can now be found on the Craft Gin Club online shop. Made with that same quality craftsmanship as their English Tonic Water, each one is utterly delicious. Try Marlish Rhubarb and Ginger Ale and their Raspberry Tonic Water in these two gin-credible serves:

Marlish Rhubarb and Ginger Ale & Gin

Marlish has managed to capture that winning flavour combination of subtly sweet, tart rhubarb and fiery ginger in their mouthwatering Rhubarb and Ginger Ale. It goes so well with the rich, complex juniper notes of gin! The addition of berry-licious strawberries and fragrant mint really makes this an utterly gorgeous and simple serve to enjoy through spring and summer as a great alternative to a G&T.

Gin & Marlish Raspberry Tonic Water

Marlish Raspberry Tonic Water is a wonderful expression of how great raspberry flavours can be when their natural aromas are allowed to shine without being made overly sweet. This perfectly balanced mixer makes for a magnificent partner to your favourite craft gins, especially when garnished with sprigs of rosemary for a herbaceous edge and fresh raspberries for an added burst of berry flavour.
