Portobello Road Gin 70cl

Portobello Road Gin and Tonic

Our signature drink. We suggest our lovingly distilled Portobello Road Gin is best served simply with a twist of pink grapefruit.

Ingredients

50ml Portobello Road Gin 100ml Premium tonic water Twist of pink grapefruit 

Preparation

Fill a tall glass with lots of good quality ice. Add the Portobello Road Gin and top with tonic water taking extra care to pour it as slowly as you can so as to maintain its effervescence. Cut a thin peel of pink grapefruit and twist over the top of the glass to release the oils from the skin. Place the peel in the drink and enjoy!

Ultimate Cooling Copa

A Copa for the summer season, the ultimate refreshing G&T, with super chilled tonic water, gin, and glasses & garnishes selected for their cooling properties.

Ingredients

50ml Portobello Road Gin, 200ml Premium Tonic Water, garnish with cucumber ribbons, watermelon cubes, spearmint and green apple. 

Preparation

This drink is all about cooling down so the secret is in the preparation. Keep your Gin in the freezer, put your tonic water in a bucket of iced water in the fridge into which you have also dissolved a desert spoon full of salt, keep your garnish fruit and veg in the fridge. Keep your glassware in the freezer.

When you’re ready almost fill the glass with ice, add the gin and slowly add the tonic, then use a vegetable peeler to cut long strips of cucumber, add 3 or 4 mint leaves, and a similar number of watermelon cubes (you can prepare these in advance) if you’re feeling really adventurous top the whole thing with a fanned apple “parasol” to keep the drink in the shade. Serve promptly.
