Every bar cart needs a perfect cocktail making gin, a low-key approachable spirit to mix and match with whatever is on hand. Currently, we're loving Bulrush Gin. Bulrush was created to be warm, welcoming, delicious and approachable. The spirit is unabashedly made for cocktails. It's juniper-forward and was one of the highest rated gins in 2019 by the Beverage Testing Institute. The bottle hails from the low country of the Carolinas, and it's perfect for an afternoon cocktail. If possible, a cocktail to be enjoyed on a front porch swing.
Currently, we're recommending a few relaxed cocktails to enjoy with Bulrush:
Spanish GinTonic
2 oz Bulrush Gin
4 oz Premium Tonic
Fill a large wine glass with ice, add gin, add tonic. Your choice of fresh garnish, but try out a cinnamon stick (trust us).
Classic Gin Martini
2 1/2 oz Bulrush Gin
1 oz Vermouth
Pour gin and vermouth into a shaker filled partway with ice. Stir gently with a long-handled cocktail spoon for at least 30 seconds. Strain liquid into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a lemon twist or olives.
