The right amount of dilution from proper ice or a splash of water, helps balance the intensity of the alcohol and enhances the drink’s flavors.

As ice melts in a drink or cocktail, it lowers the drink’s temperature, which can help mute overly strong flavors especially in spirits like whisky or gin.

The more you dilute a cocktail, the lower the alcohol content. So, the amount of ice, water or mixer added can determine how potent your final drink will be.

If you ever want to impress your guests or just want a little sip sip at sunset, then this is one of them ones!

I used for this one due to its bold and exotic flavors inspired by the ancient Spice Route! Its warm notes of coriander, cardamom and black pepper pair perfectly with the subtle floral elegance of organic butterfly pea flowers for a herbal Gin & Tonic like no other!

Recipe highlights:
- 50ml or any Gin of your choice infused with dried organic butterfly pea flowers from

- 150ml Tonic soda

Garnish: Orange wheel for sweetness, rosemary sprig, a dried butterfly pea flower and star anise

Starting of the year with an aromatic blend of sweet spice and creamy vanilla Syrup 😋

This is an easy one to do and you can recalibrate the recipe depending on how potent you prefer your syrup to be for your everyday cocktails.

All you need is:
- 3-4 cinnamon sticks
- 1 vanilla pod (scrape out the guts)
- 2:1 Sugar to water ratio

Method:
Combine the sugar and water in a pan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved. Add the cinnamon sticks and vanilla pod to the syrup. As soon as you see bubbles, cover and turn off the heat. Let sit/steep for 20 minutes or longer depending on how concentrated you want the flavor to be, then strain, label, date and refrigerate.

Check out the entire process on our Reels!

Cheers 🥂
