Part of the local small batch drinks boom, Stirling Gin was first distilled two years ago. Their particular taste profile is infused with hand-picked Stirlingshire nettles, basil, lemon peel, orange peel, juniper and angelica root.
Stirling Gin brand ambassador and mixologist, Stewart Patience, has shared a recipe he created for the annual crime-writing festival Bloody Scotland. Ian Rankin was a fan. Try this concoction for yourself.
