Pink gin is exactly what it sounds like—flavored gin that uses pin or red botanicals post-distillation to give the spirit its signature hue. In the world of this unique category, Salcombe’s expression is simply one of the best. Inspired by the Mediterranean flavors of the south of France, the company’s Rosé Sainte Marie expression is distilled and crafted with a variety of botanicals, including Macedonian juniper, angelica and strawberries. Additionally, this charismatic pink gin is crafted without the use of added colors, sugars or artificial flavors. This good value gin hails from Italy’s Amalfi Coast and makes use of native botanicals including local lemons and Sicilian pink grapefruits. Unsurprisingly it’s bursting with bright citrus freshness, alongside a tart hit of rhubarb. But it’s also a well balanced gin with classic spice notes and a proper hit of piney juniper. When aperitivo hour arrives pair it with Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic in a zesty G&T garnished with a slice of pink grapefruit. Then sip and embrace la dolce vita… Alc 41% Region: England | ABV: 41.4% | Tasting Notes: Strawberry, Orange Blossom, Pink Peppercorn, Rose Water The team behind Mirabeau rosé wines make this elegant pink gin that’s inspired by, and infused with, the grapes and botanicals growing wild on their Provence estate. A base of grape spirit extracted from Mirabeau’s Forever Summer wine is combined with 12 botanicals including juniper, coriander seed, lemon peel, lavender, jasmine, bay leaf, thyme, rosemary, iris root and angelica. They give an enveloping and fragrant florality on the nose, while the palate is lifted by citrus freshness and given an earthy touch by generous herbaceousness. There’s also an underlying soft sweetness from the addition of Mirabeau’s Provence rosé to the distillation. Refreshing and enjoyable to sip on its own, although a lemon peel garnish combined with a bitter tonic, or grapefruit juice, works well to amplify the herbal and floral characters while accenting the sweetness.

Parma violet flavoured gins have been successful for quite a while now, and Asda’s Extra Special Parma Violet Gin really does taste of our beloved sweets. It comes as no literal surprise to us that this gin sold out when it was first released, and it stands up well against some of the other parma violet offerings that are currently available in the world of gin. ASDA Extra Special Parma Violet Gin 8. ASDA Extra Special Rhubarb & Ginger Gin Liqueur Finland’s Kyrö distillery makes this distinctive coppery onion-skin coloured gin, using a base of rye spirit. That rye gives an interesting savoury, grainy note to the aromas and adds real depth and a creamy silkiness to the palate. Infused with fresh red berries, rhubarb and foraged Finnish lingonberries, there are also the red fruit notes you’d expect from a pink gin, alongside herbs, spices and vanilla hints. Savour it in a Martini. Alc 38.2% To truly capture the sunlight, Asda’s Extra Special Raspberry and Rose Gin Liqueur is full of glitter that shimmers under the sun in almost any drink.
