Sloe gin may be synonymous with winter and the festive period but it’s a susprisingly versatile drink that, with the right sloe gin mixer, can be enjoyed at any occasion.
Wether it’s the festive season or any kind of celebration, sloe gin is fantastic with bubbles.
Since sloe gin generally contains less ABV than gin it’s considered a liqueur and the main ingredient is normally sloe berries and not juniper.
It’s this lightness of character that pairs perfectly with bubbles of every kind, so why not see for yourself with our three favourite sloe gin fizz cocktails.
