Must Mix: Brockmans Gin Valentine’s Day Cocktails

Darkly seductive Brockmans Gin is famed for its blueberry and blackberry notes and now, in time for Valentine’s Day, Brockmans has unleashed two cocktails that ring with romance in both taste and color.

“These uniquely romantic cocktails are the perfect choice to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Brockmans signature taste is created with a unique blend of botanicals including blackberries, blueberries, coriander, bitter-sweet orange peel and juniper berries. This combination of botanicals creates a gin that is so smooth it can be enjoyed on its own over ice or as the primary ingredient in a range of classic and contemporary cocktails.”
– Bob Fowkes, Marketing Director and Co-founder of Brockmans Gin
