Gin drinking is typically stereotyped for the older generation, with the myth that gin is not necessarily a drink to have as a cocktail and that it should generally be drunk as a G&T. We however think this is wrong and wanted to test that theory with some of Bulldog Gin’s recommended cocktails.

Available from a variety of retailers, Bulldog is a refreshing gin which is smooth and well balanced. It is very versatile, making it the perfect alcoholic tipple to be mixed with a variety of flavours for an exceptional cocktail.

Bulldog’s mission is to redefine the perception of gin drinking and they have achieved this by not only creating a great gin to have neat, but they have also concocted 8 classic cocktails and 16 collection cocktails.

We tried out a few of the recipes ourselves and whilst they were all delicious, these are the three which made the cut for Valentine’s day (trust us – you’re guaranteed to impress…)
