episode 199: How to Drink Sing Gin with Richard Thompson


Yorkshire is known for its turbulent weather and wildly romantic hills and dales, which influenced not only the Bronte sisters but our guest today.

We have Richard Thompson, Co-Founder of Sing Gin, with me today on the program. When his father brought home a still, they were not sure what would come of it. Throwing caution to the wind, he and his family produced an award-winning gin that comes from and is tied to the Yorkshire landscape.

He is here to tell us what transpired. In the words of Emily Bronte, kind of, we’ll discover: “It was not the flax bending to the gin, but the gin embracing the flax.”

So let’s get to it.

Our cocktail of the week had to be the Sing Gin Floradora:

INGREDIENTS 

  • 50ml Sing Gin
  • 20ml Fresh lime juice
  • 25ml Raspberry syrup
  • Ginger ale

METHOD

  • Combine the gin, lime juice, and syrup in an ice-filled cocktail shaker
  • Shake, shake, shake
  • Strain over cubed ice into a balloon glass.
  • Top with ginger ale and stir gently
  • Garnish with raspberries and a lime wedge

You'll find this recipe, more Sing Gin recipes, including the Rose Gin Fizz, and all the cocktails of the week at alushlifemanual.com, where you’ll also find all the ingredients in our shop.
