· Gin Mare – a bold gin with olive and basil flavours – is accentuated with the rosemary, lemon thyme and geranium in Fever-Tree’s Mediterranean Tonic for a herbal, savoury twist on the classic G&T
· Monkey 47, inspired by perfumery and distilled in Germany’s New Black Forest, 47 botanicals give this premium gin a depth and complexity, which is lifted by Fever-Tree’s Indian tonic. Served with strawberry and lime, it’s a treat
