The Sloe Gin & Elderflower Collins: a simple-but-sophisticated cocktail to try this weekend

With their beautiful ruby-amber colour and rich, fruity flavour, sloe gin cocktails are a true delight for any gin lover. And here’s one of our absolute favourite recipes to whip up at home: the Sloe Gin & Elderflower Collins.

Featuring just four ingredients, you don’t need any special equipment - not even a shaker - to create this delicious, simple cocktail from the comfort of your own kitchen in mere seconds!

We’ve take a classic Sloe Gin Collins and given it a delicious added layer of flavour, with the addition of a slightly sweet, lightly floral elderflower mixer in place of the usual soda water. The result is a beautifully refreshing tipple that’s the ideal alternative to your usual G&T, year-round.

You can now buy all of the ingredients for this superb cocktail on our online shop! Our Sloe Gin & Elderflower Collins cocktail bundle contains a full-size bottle of Elephant Sloe Gin, a bottle of Craft Gin Club Simple Syrup and Lovely Drinks Lightly Sparkling Elderflower Presse.
