PERFECT SERVE
Wild Island Botanic Gin is incredibly smooth and delicious served simply with a cube of ice and a sprig of mint.
It, of course, makes the perfect WIG and tonic. We suggest a slice of lemon, a good quality tonic (at not more than 2:1 ratio to gin) and plenty of good ice. Finish with a sprig of mint and a twist of lemon peel for added aroma. Stir gently and enjoy.
“SOUTHSIDE”
Created in Prohibition-era US and named after the notorious “Southside” district of Chicago, this cocktail is uncomplicated and delicious and was reputed to be a favourite of Al Capone.
