Gin doesn't always get the respect it deserves
nowadays. With all of these fancy, colorful and celebrity-endorsed liquors
coming out, the juniper berry derived nectar of the Gods somehow seems to fall
by the wayside when drinks are being ordered. Boodles British Gin, a classic
brand that was a favorite of Winston Churchill’s, stands tall above its
competitors merely because of how smooth and mild its flavors are especially
when mixed into a classic cocktail. A few years back, Gin was all the rage as
people began re-experimenting with classic Martini recipes and other Gin based
drinks. But as times changed and people began focusing their attention
elsewhere, many brands were left shaking their heads in disbelief at how fast
the climate changed in the world of mixology.
Boodles Gin, a longtime favorite
libation base to quite a few of our British friends is not what you would
expect it be considering its rather cost friendly price. Mixing up a couple of
colorful cocktails yesterday after a long day in the test kitchen we decided
two things; 1. Boodles deserves to be our house brand of Gin from here on out
and 2. Boodles will have you not leave you with a headache the next morning (that
is unless you're a sloppy drinker and you should probably be seeking help elsewhere,
not in a bottle.) We took the smooth route and put a slight spin on a few old
world classics such as the and had a quite relaxing evening, while plotting the
next days debauchery out.
Our favorite drink of the night came simply from
pouring 1 part Boodles Gin over ice into a chilled rocks glass, adding 2 parts
Ginger Ale & 1 thin slice of Lime. I believe they call that a Gin Gin in
certain circles but we ended up calling the “Gin Limey.” A few of those will
have you ready for just about anything, so this is where you must make sure to
have a designated driver close by, cause you will get hungry eventually.
The end result, get your hands on a few bottles
before the weekend arrives and practice the fine art of cocktail making at
home. Your friends will love you and appreciate your thoughtfulness.
