Gin Gin Botanicals - create the Ultimate Gin Experience
You can make your own gin, enhance the flavours of a gin or simply make beautiful looking drinks with our handy stackable set of gin botanicals that have been carefully curated to give you the best flavours in your gin drinks. We have worked hard to ethically source the best quality botanicals and have added edible gold leaf to the stack to make the best looking drinks around.
​
Each botanical contains a different health benefit and if you are not drinking alcohol they make for a fantastic healthy drink (that tastes like gin) just add sparking water. To find out the benefits of different botanicals that make up gin we have created a handy chart down the page..
​
We also stock large ice spheres to really let you make the best drinks. The large sphere of ice melts at a much slower rate than smaller ice cubes preventing your drink from being watered down. They also look so good! You can add edible flowers, the gold leaf, spices, fruit to make beautiful, Instagram worthy cocktails every day.
