If you’re a fan of a cheeky sip of peach schnapps every so often then you simply must give this fun gin, pomegranate and peach schnapps cocktail recipe a go.
Mixed with dry vermouth and a touch of ruby-red grenadine, it’s the perfect way to jazz up your cosy nights in and impress your favourite cocktail connoisseurs.
For the gin, it has to be Craft Gin Club’s November 2023 Gin of the Month, Forged Winter Gin. This remarkable craft gin comes from Wakefield, in Yorkshire, and it is a symphony of warm citrus, spice and juniper flavours.
The rich, autumnal palate of the gin makes for a delicious partner to the sweet, fruity peach schnapps. Together, they give you spiced stoned fruit flavours that are warm, jammy and delightfully complex.
Grenadine, with its juicy, sticky pomegranate tones adds to that fruity allure of this serve, giving it an eye-catching red colour and a lip-smacking hit of festive joy.
Adding dry vermouth to the cocktail then brings a grown-up combination of herb, spice and citrus flavours that take each sip to the next level.
All together, this combination of ingredients gives you a cocktail that looks gloriously fruity and sweet yet is surprisingly rich and complex. We can’t wait for you to give it a try!
