We know it’s only August, but we’re not afraid to admit we’re craving a bit of sloe gin right now! The Sloe taste is a 10/10: slightly nutty, fruity and berry-licious. Which is exactly why we’ve been eyeing up this Sloe Gin Plum Cake baking recipe too! Whilst we’re not going into full-on autumnal mode just yet, this Sloe G&T is ticking all of our ginny boxes. (And if you fancy giving some Gin DIY a go, check out how to make your own sloe gin!)

The intense plummy sweetness combined with the fizzy tonic makes a well-balanced, simple timple that’s really refreshing. We add a lot of ice to ours, because it’s still technically summer after all! If you’re craving something a bit sweeter than your usual G&T, we guarantee you’ll be slipping this sloe-ly. And if you are ready to sloe-it-up, you’re in for a treat with the stunning Sloe Gin Highball.

Sloe G&T

50ml sloe gin
200ml premium tonic water
Fresh lime and rosemary, to garnish

Fill your glass with ice, then pour in the gin and tonic. Stir and finish by garnishing with a lime and sprig of rosemary. Enjoy!
