This plum, cherry and gin martini recipe is a must-try for any gin and cocktail fan! Mixing Junimperium Special Edition Tallinn Dry Gin, the star of Craft Gin Club’s October 2022 Gin of the Month box, with Breckland Orchard Plum and Cherry Posh Pop and Craft Gin Club’s Midnight Martini Cocktail Syrup, it’s a gorgeous purple cocktail recipe that’s perfect for autumn, Halloween and beyond.
Junimperium Special Edition Tallinn Dry Gin is brimming with delectably rich juniper tones complemented by touches of citrus and pepper. It works so well with the juicy plum and sumptuous cherry flavours of Breckland Orchard Plum & Cherry Posh Pop.
Craft Gin Club’s Midnight Martini Cocktail Syrup then adds sweet aromas that round out the whole experience deliciously.
We then recommend garnishing this cocktail with lemon peel or, for a spooky Halloween touch, why not try garnishing with a chocolate spider web? Simply pipe melted chocolate onto a sheet of baking parchment in a spider webs shape and allow to cool until set. Peel them off the sheet and garnish your Midnight Martini.
