Why you are pouring this tonight
Australian shelves love a pink gin. Four Pillars Bloody Shiraz Gin does it with shiraz grapes; Beefeater Pink uses strawberries; Gordon’s Premium Pink is the budget pick. All three make a beautiful summer G&T with pink grapefruit and a sprig of fresh basil or mint.
What changes from the Gin and Tonic
Pink or shiraz gin. Grapefruit slice and basil garnish. Works beautifully with light tonic.
What to pour it alongside
Prosciutto and melon, summer salads, grilled prawns. The gin’s sweetness lifts cold food.
