What Ingredients do you need to make a Bermuda?

Gin is a distilled alcohol drink made from Juniper Berries and is one of the most popular alcoholic beverages in the world.

Its popularity is growing year on year, with sales in the UK rising beyond £3 billion per year.

For Gin, we recommend:

Orange Juice

Orange Juice is an essential ingredient for most bars and fridges all around the world. Why? It mixes well with virtually any form of alcohol.

Cocktails with Orange Juice and Vodka? Absolutely.

Cocktails with Orange Juice and Tequila? Naturally.

Cocktails with Orange Juice and Rum? Sure, why not?

And the list doesn’t end there.

For Orange Juice, we recommend:

Grenadine

Grenadine is a non-alcoholic bar syrup that’s traditionally used to give a cocktail a red or pink tint and is made from pomegranate.
