World Gin Day Recipe: Sopwell House’s G&Tea

World Gin Day (Saturday 10 June 2017) is the perfect reason to enjoy a G&T or two in the sunshine.

In the spirit of World Gin Day, Sopwell House has fused two of the nation’s favourite drinks: tea and gin! Mixing up the classic gin and tonic, Sopwell House’s expert mixologists have created the G&Tea, which has the addition of earl grey tea and grapefruit juice to give it a sophisticated twist.
