Classic Pink Gin

Classic Pink Gin

One of the first-ever gin cocktails, the Pink Gin was invented in the 1800s when sailors in the British navy added dashes of Angostura Aromatic Bitters to their rations of gin.

The deep red bitters turned the gin a stunning shade of pink and the Pink Gin was born.

INGREDIENTS

FOR ONE COCKTAIL

  • 50 mL Original SIP Dry gin
  • 2 dashes Angostura Aromatic Bitters
  • 1 Lemon Peel or Raspberries

For two cocktails just double up the ingredients.

DIRECTIONS

Add the gin, and bitters to the large cup of your cocktail shaker.
Add the ice to the shaker and stir not shake.
Use the cocktail strainer to strain into a martini glass over ice. Garnish with lemon peel.

RECOMMENDATIONS

For a more refreshing and a little sweetness, top up with tonic water or soda water and garnish a few raspberries.
