About the Pink Gin 75
The original 'pink gin' was plain gin with a few dashes of Angostura bitters, drunk by Royal Navy officers. Today's pink gins are fruit-flavoured.
Missing something?
- No Gin? Use Old Tom Gin (Sweeter and rounder, so cut the syrup a little)
- No Gin? Use Genever (Maltier and rounder)
- No Lemon Juice? Use Lemon (Squeeze fresh: 1 lemon gives about 30 ml)
- No Lemon Juice? Use Lime Juice (Sharper, different aroma)
- No Simple Syrup? Use Rich Simple Syrup (More concentrated, so use less)
- No Simple Syrup? Use Sugar (1 tsp sugar is about 7.5 ml syrup; stir until dissolved)
- No Champagne? Use Prosecco (Fruitier and a little sweeter)
