What To Consider When Buying Flavoured Gin
Choosing a flavoured gin is going to come down to personal preference, but there are still a few things to consider;-
Will flavoured gin be too sweet?
No, not at all. Although there are some gins that add sugar for sweetness, many of them contain no added sugar and are only infused with natural flavours.
Can flavoured gin be mixed?
Flavoured gins are really versatile. They can be sipped neat on ice or mixed with tonic water, sparkling wine or used as a base for many a cocktail.
Is an expensive flavoured gin more tasty?
Not necessarily! You can pick up a decent flavoured gin from around £15. Shop around and see what you can find.
