This fabulous spring cocktail recipe is taken from Craft Gin Club’s chart-topping book, Gin O’Clock: A Year of Ginspiration - and it’s proven an incredibly popular tipple with our members!

To celebrate the arrival of spring, and to give you a little taste of some of the GORGEOUS cocktail suggestions you will find inside this handsome little coffee-table book (alongside lots of useful articles all about how to look after your gin, ideas for garnishing your G&T, and loaaads more besides), here’s a sneak peek at one of the recipes you can find inside this gorgeous gin-lover’s go-to book.

The cocktail recipe below, the Apricot Blossom, is a light, fragrant and citrussy tipple that combines tart fruity flavours of fresh grapefruit and lemon with sticky-sweet honey, apricot jam, and a lovely base note of smooth, warming gin. Honestly, it’s going to transform your Saturday night (and Sunday, and… well, you get the picture). Chin chin!
