A couple of weeks ago, Fresha Strawberry Gin contacted me and asked if I would like to try some of their new Strawberry Gin Jam...my decision was made in less than a heartbeat, "Yes please!"

Pickering’s – My true beGINning
I have such a love for Scottish gins, and even more specifically it would seem, ones from Edinburgh. A few years ago, in October 2014, an absolutely gorgeous boy who I had been dating for 18 months, took me on a little trip to go and see my other obsession...pandas, at Edinburgh zoo. While there,… Continue reading Pickering’s – My true beGINning
The Soho Juice Co.
I am super excited to tell you about this delicious goodness which I have discovered! I have been lucky enough to be sent through a delightful little cocktail kit by The Soho Juice Co. and what do you know, it arrived just in time for half term...how very convenient.

The Kiwi takeover
During a rather hectic summer, unfortunately our monthly gin club fell a little by the wayside. However, it would seem that on Wednesday stars aligned, text messages were sent and five of us were available to catch up on Thursday! This month was to be a gin club with a difference. One of our Ginly… Continue reading The Kiwi takeover
Gin Tales – Griffiths Brothers Gin
Finding out that a gin distillery has opened not too far from where you live is every gin lover's dream. When my gin buddy told me about Griffiths Brothers Distillery in Penn I had to pinch myself, the dream was a reality!

Gin Shots – PJ Apple Gin
I've chosen to do a Gin Shot review on this specific flavour of gin from Belgian Spirits Company for one reason only, which is that I hate ginger...or at least I thought I did. What on earth does ginger have to do with PJ apple gin? The lovely chap on the sample table at Gin Festival… Continue reading Gin Shots – PJ Apple Gin

I know us teachers have fabulously long summer breaks, but… Continue reading Gin Festival – The best way to celebrate the end of the summer holidays!
Spanish Gin Explosion Part 2 – Madrid
After the relaxing part of our holiday in Moraira, we made the long drive back up to Madrid for 3 days of culture and exploring. Having never been to Madrid I wasn't really sure what to expect, thankfully Hubby loves a bit of research so knew exactly what we needed to see. As this is… Continue reading Spanish Gin Explosion Part 2 – Madrid
