These cocktails are inspired by one of London's trendiest areas!

A short walk from the Craft Gin Club office, Soho has to be one of our favourite areas. Vibrant and bursting with fabulous restaurants and bars, it’s an endless source of inspiration for everyone here at the club - especially for Maria, our amazing Master Mixologist.

In honour of Soho, Maria has created three gin-credible cocktails inspired by the area and some of its wonderful establishments. What’s more, to really capture the Soho spirit, Maria has used delicious mixers from the fabulous Soho-based juice company The Soho Juice Co.

We included their Apple, Honey & Lemon juice and their Cucumber, Mint & Lemon juice in our March 2021 Gin of the Month box for our lucky members to try and we have been in love with them from the start. Not only are their mixers utterly delicious, but they are also vegan-friendly, preservative-free and, because they aren’t carbonated, they release far less CO2 into the atmosphere during production than some other drinks brands.

With magnificent flavours and mixers that are environmentally conscious, it’s a gin-gin situation!

How can The Soho Juice Co. Apple, Honey & Lemon be vegan-friendly if it has honey? Well, the honey flavour in The Soho Juice Co. Apple, Honey & Lemon actually comes from the honeybush plant - not the sticky, sweet stuff produced by bees.

Honeybush is from South Africa and is often used as a tea. It’s a great alternative to honey for vegans, especially when made into a syrup. All that you need to do is dissolve 200g of sugar in 200ml of hot, freshly brewed honeybush tea and then allow the resulting syrup to cool before use. You can then use the honeybush syrup exactly as you would honey.
