Bartender top tips
I had the pleasure of helping the team to create our first new Limited Edition to come from the home of Bombay Sapphire. The result of our hard work is English Estate. I was therefore well placed to create a hero cocktail to amplify the attributes of this gin.
If you’re hosting a garden party over the summer and want to free up your time, then you can batch this cocktail into jugs. Simply multiply the recipe in “parts” up to size of the jug that you have. In general, 4 times the recipe tends to work really well.
