Sikkim Greenery is our delicious Spanish apple gin distilled six times from a base of Indian red tea, different apple varieties, juniper and flower essences. In this gin and tonic recipe, we pair it with fresh granny smith apple and mint leaves for a refreshing gin and tonic.

Ingredients
Method

50ml Sikkim Greeery
Schweppes 1783 Light Tonic Water
1 granny smith apple
8 fresh mint leaves

Start by rubbing very quickly the rim of the glass with some apple peel. The oils in the peel will flavour the glass.
It’s crucial to get your glass as cold as possible by initially stirring a few ice cubes around the glass to chill it. Drain out any excess water.
Fill the glass with plenty of cold ice.
Add the Sikkim Greenery gin, then the tonic pouring it very slowly over a bar spoon to avoid losing all the carbonation.
Finally, stir the drink very gently before adding a long apple peel and some freshly picked mint leaves.
