If you like rum and ginger ale then you need to give this combination of River Test Spiced Rum, Craft Gin Club's July 2024 Rum of the Month, and Brecon Carreg Ginger Ale a go. It could be the ultimate rum and ginger ale pairing!

Find the full recipe below...

River Test Spiced Rum is a beautiful medley of Caribbean rum and botanical ingredients inspired by the English countryside, especially those found around The River Test Distillery in Hampshire.

Each sip of this fantastic English spiced rum is brimming with soft brown sugar, citrus and baking spice notes, all rounded out wonderfully by meadowsweet, which offers its own subtle almond and vanilla tones.

Ginger ale, which is sweeter than ginger beer yet just as zesty and fragrant, is an ideal partner to the complex, multi-layered palate of River Test Spiced Rum, especially when that ginger ale comes from the incredible team at Brecon Carreg.

Brecon Carreg elevates those classic ginger flavours in their ginger ale by using only the finest carbonated spring water sourced from the Welsh mountains. The result is an elegant, bubbly and incredibly well-balanced ginger ale that really allows the rum to shine.

To garnish this River Test Spiced Rum serve, we recommend using slices of kumquat. This exotic citrus fruit brightens every sip of this serve with its unique flavour profile, which is fragrant and bright.
