This is a faux cocktail, but if you’re feeling a bit extra, why not go wild and add a shot of Gin!

I love having friends over and enjoying a delicious drink with them.

I have many visitors so it would get a bit much if I had an alcoholic drink every time!

So, this faux rose gin, really does hit the spot if you’re going alcohol free.

Serves 4

Ingredients

• Elderflower and Rose cordial (it’s very potent so you only need a drop)
• Indian Tonic Water – the variety that you love.
• Gin (if you are feeling wild)
• Juniper berries 1 tsp
• Lime wedges
• Ice

Method

• Very easy to make
• Get your best glasses out (to really enjoy the whole experience)
• Fill the glasses with ice

• Now in a jug mix together a splash of the Elderflower and Rose cordial (as you would with a gin measure) for each glass
• Add your tonic water and a generous squeeze of lime
• Give it a stir

• Pour onto the ice that you placed in the glasses
• Gently bruise the juniper berries on the back of a knife and pop those in,
• You’ll smell the scent of gin!
• Add in another squeeze of lime and a sprig of fresh rosemary to each glass.

Now that is a drink you can never have too many off!

And as you have a jug handy you can top up whenever you like.

Cheers!
