Product Information

What mixer goes with gin liqueur? This is a question that many people ask, and there is no one definitive answer. However, there are a few mixers that work well with gin liqueur. A passionfruit martini if you don’t already know is usually a mix of vodka, passion fruit liqueur, sugar syrup, lime, passion fruit and prosecco. These ingredients can change and vary depending on your point of view, or recipe you use, however. The Melodist Mango and Passion Fruit Gin doesn’t need much help. It makes a unique gin and tonic with a simple garnish of a skewer of a lime wedge and a spear of fresh mango. Try it shaken with a dash of dry martini and ice and served in a well-frosted glass. It’s post Christmas, and I am in the mood for a party – because it’s nearly New Years eve! For this years New Years eve bake I have gone down the line of one of my favourite drinks in the world (because I am extremely basic) – a passionfruit martini in cupcake form… so here are my passionfruit martini cupcakes!

Herbs & plants: rosemary, thyme, lavender, mint, elderflowerRemember, the more you use the stronger the flavour. Use around 200-400g of fruit per litre of spirit. Once baked into the beautiful baking cups I chose, and fresh out of the oven, I spooned over some vodka. This naturally soaked into the sponges as they cooled. I then cored out some of the cupcake to add in some passionfruit curd. This is utterly optional, but who doesn’t love an extra passionfruit flavour?! Shoppers will be cider themselves as Aldi introduces a new range of ready-to-drink cider cans, which combine its award-winning spirits with tropical fruit flavours – perfect for bank holiday sipping and just 99p a can! Christmas is just a memory, and the New Year celebrations are already over, but the next event isn’t far away. Valentine’s Day is around the corner and Tesco has the perfect spirit for a romantic evening. Tesco Finest offers Mango and Passionfruit Gin from The Melodist. There are a few things to consider when pairing a tonic with passionfruit gin. The first is the flavor of the gin itself. Passionfruit gin is a unique flavor that can be paired with a variety of tonics. Some tonics that would pair well with passionfruit gin are ginger beer, sparkling water, or lemon-lime soda.

Finally, you can also mix gin liqueur with soda. This is a great option if you are looking for a light and refreshing drink. Additionally, soda is a great mixer if you are on a budget, as it is a relatively inexpensive drink. That’s not completely untrue - there is a type of gin called “compound gin” that you can make in your kitchen with a bottle of vodka and whatever botanicals you feel like adding. But for an even easier “cheat’s” take on flavoured gin, try one of our ‘ginfusions’ below. Beware of leaving it too long and over-infusing the mixture, though - in the same way that a cup of tea with the teabag left in too long can taste horrible, so too can flavoured gin! Mango and Passion Fruit, two delightful flavours that come together in perfect harmony to transport you to the sunny isle of Saint Lucia. A classic combination that’s simple yet effective. Whether the sun is shining where you are or not, let these tropical heroes embrace your taste buds like a balmy Caribbean breeze. So taste the gin at intervals, and once you’re happy with the flavour, filter out all the botanicals using a sieve. If there’s some sediment left in the liquid, use some muslin or a coffee filter to strain it again.

Another mixer that goes well with gin liqueur is lemonade. Lemonade has a tart and tangy flavor that pairs well with the botanical flavors of gin liqueur. Additionally, lemonade is a refreshing drink that can help you cool down on a hot day. Just remember that strong flavours like citrus peel, chilli and fresh or dried herbs tend to be quite powerful in small amounts!

How we make a difference

The juicy sweetness of fresh mango blends with the refreshing tartness of passionfruit for an uplifting edge. To experience the depth of flavour in all its glory, pour a generous splash over ice. Inhale its heady aroma, then relax, unwind, and savour each mouthful. When you think of tropical flavors, what comes to mind? Pineapple, mango, papaya, and passionfruit are all likely candidates. These flavors are the perfect match for a refreshing gin and tonic, especially during the hot summer months. Lime Juice — Again, freshly squeezed juice! The lime adds a subtle sour contrast with the sweet mango flavor. I was walking through a local specialty grocery store the other day, truly in awe of all the beautiful fruits and vegetables that were on display – purple asparagus, figs, candy cane beets, among many other things (I swear unique fruits and vegetables are like an art form to me!). When you're happy with the flavour, sieve to remove any solids, then pass through a very fine piece of muslin or a coffee filter to get rid of any sediment.
