COCKTAILS
We all love gin right, but when we are feeling particularly fancy we love to treat ourselves to a few gin cocktails. Sometimes those Gin Cocktails are just too difficult to create though, so we teamed up with a local mixologist to create the Forged Spirits Cocktail menu for you. These Cocktails are very easy to make, no mountain herbs, or other impossible to find ingredients are required and no liquid nitrogen either. All you need is a cocktail shaker, strainer and ingredients you can find in any supermarket – and of course your favourite Forged Spirits.
So go on and treat yourself to one of our specially created gin cocktails. There are some classics cocktails with a twist and others that are uniquely inspired. Just be sure to post the results and tag us.
