BLUEBERRY, ELDERFLOWER

The good old ‘G&T’ (Gin & Tonic) has been

around since the early 19th century, and has

been a staple British tipple since it was first

introduced by the British East India Company.

Beautiful served with Viennese biscuits or

sweet kick to your mojito.

soak in a cool, dark place for 2-3 weeks, shaking

your jar once a day to make sure the berries

absorb as much gin as possible!
