At Craft Gin Club, we know the importance of sending a thoughtful gin gift to a fellow gin pal or good friend. Whatever the occasion, whether it’s their birthday, wedding or just because!

And do you know what pairs perfectly with a bottle of gin? A gorgeous card (like the ones from Whistlefish - and our lucky members received one in their August 2022 Gin of the Month box)!

If you got 5-8 points:

Make them a… Pink Gin Spritz. This pretty-as-a-picture cocktail is rose-pink and elegantly effervescent, so they’ll love this delightful tipple. It’s equal parts sweet and bubbly, so it’s the best of both worlds… Recipe right here!

If you got 10-13 points:

Make them a… Hanky Panky. This classic (but cheeky) drink features only three ingredients: gin, sweet vermouth and Fernet Branca. They’ll love the rich and sumptuous tones (and it’s perfect if they love a Negroni!). Get the recipe here!

If you got 14-15 points:

Make them a…Floradora. Enjoy this beautiful cocktail with a yummy blend of floral and citrus tones that complement the vibrant ginger ale and the raspberry liqueur flavour perfectly! It looks as good as it tastes and they’ll know you’ve put time into making it! Get the recipe here…
