Beefeater Blood Orange Gin

This isn’t a new gin flavour as such, but it is a newbie to Beefeater. I am pretty much obsessed with all things blood orange so when Beefeater Blood Orange Gin was released, it was a must try.  There are 10 different botanicals in this gin ranging from coriander seed, liquorice root, lemon peel and of course Seville orange peel and blood orange flavour. This gin promises fresh citrus flavours of blood orange that tune perfectly with the classic notes of juniper and citrus of Beefeater Gin.  When news broke that the Beefeater Blood Orange Gin was hitting shelves, it…

Whitley Neill Pink Grapefruit Gin

Happy Gin Wednesday! Gin has certainly exploded and you can pretty much buy it anywhere, and in any flavour. I’m relatively late to the gin party and only really started enjoying it a couple of years back. Whitley Neill Pink Grapefruit Gin is a newbie, and I first spotted it in Asda back in February. Originally this was nestled amongst the Valentine’s display but does not appear to be limited edition. This was exclusive to Asda, both in-stores and online, however you can now find this online on other drink outlets. RRP is £25.00 but is usually on offer in Asda…

We Are Tea Sleep Tea

Sometimes we all need a little help to catch some Zzzz’s. I have tried the holistic method with Tisserand Little Sleep Kit and now it is the turn of a good old cuppa thanks to We Are Tea Sleep Tea*.  Part of their Super Tea range We are Tea have created a whole host of teas that not only do good for your body but also taste good. I am first to put my hand up and say lavender tea would not be my first choice. In fact it would come way, way, way, way down the list of teas to…
