About this deal

As an extra, you could muddle strawberries or raspberries in the bottom of the glass before adding the ice. It’s very unlikely that your gin will go off unless it’s been stored somewhere that has made it get too warm, the seal has been broken, or the opened bottle has been left so long between drinks that the gin has oxidised.

Though there are no major variations of pink gin, many bartenders vary the amount of angostura bitters used. Typically the drink is topped up with iced water, rarely without water. Recommended Gin Liqueurs: Edinburgh Rhubarb & Ginger Gin Liqueur, Raspberry Liqueur, or Plum & Vanilla, or Shetland Reel Rhubarb & Bramble Gin Liqueur. Chambord Bramble

How we tested

Gin won’t freeze because its ABV (that’s its ‘alcohol by volume’ level) is at least 37.5% - too high to turn into ice. So don’t worry about keeping your gin in the freezer, you won’t have any exploding bottles! If possible, keep your gin in the fridge or, even better, the freezer. When you serve gin very cold, the mouthfeel is softened, and the texture becomes somewhat silkier, making it an even more pleasurable drinking experience! Will my gin freeze if I put it in the freezer? Your ultimate Slimming friendly guide to alcohol can be found here. What is the best alcohol to drink? Does it contain Syns? Is it full of calories? Are you able to still enjoy a night out whilst trying to lose weight? All of those questions will be answered here. Often clear, 37.5% proof or above and has to be made with juniper, a berry that isn’t a berry. There are often aromatic botanicals involved in the gin distilling process and these are what dictate the different flavours between gins. Pink Gin Recommended Gin: Edinburgh Rhubarb & Ginger Gin, Orkney Gin Company Rhubarb Old Tom, Edinburgh Rhubarb & Ginger Gin Liqueur. Raspberry Sour

So don’t keep your gin next to the oven or on top of the fridge, for example. Store it in a cool, dark cupboard or shelf out of direct sunlight if you can’t keep it in the fridge or freezer, and it should be fine.

Lemon rind is also commonly used as a garnish, with the citrus essential oils subtly complementing the flavour.Top tip: you might even want to consider pouring remaining gin from a half-drunk bottle into a smaller bottle (if you don’t think you’re going to be finishing it up soon). This will help slow the process of oxidisation because the gin will be less exposed to the air. Here comes the science part! Once your gin bottle is open, the oxidisation process starts. Basically, the gin’s flavour will change (and get slightly worse) very gradually over time. Unopened gin has a shelf life of several years - or even longer. So long as the bottle or seal isn’t broken, i.e. no air has been getting in, the alcohol will taste exactly the same when you do finally open it as when you bought it.

As an extra you could muddle strawberries or raspberries in the bottom of the glass before adding the ice. A Gin Fizz is very similar to a Tom Collins, and actually uses all the same ingredients. It’s the method that makes them different! While a Tom Collins is built over ice and stirred, a Gin Fizz is shaken with ice and strained into a glass without ice. A Tom Collins will typically be a larger drink than a Gin Fizz as well, often using more soda water. Distilleries like Edinburgh Gin, Shetland Reel and Harris Gin have become household names and even are giving whisky a run for its money with Scotland producing 70% of the UK’s gin! Make sure the lid is really tight. Apart from the possibility that the exposure to the air could cause the flavour of the gin to change, you don’t want any of your precious gin to evaporate!We’ve used a classic recipe (egg white included but optional if you like) and added raspberry syrup to give it a pink colour and a more distinctive fruity flavour. You could also use a pink gin if you like, or exchange the syrup for a pink gin liqueur. Pour 15ml of your choice of pink gin liqueur (raspberry, rhubarb, strawberry etc) into a flute glass and then top up with Prosecco.
