Blueberry Coffee Syrup Gin & Tonic

Bold and refreshing, this gin and tonic reinvents a classic with a homegrown twist. The rich, roasted notes of our coffee bean-infused maple syrup blend perfectly with the freshness of blueberries and the botanicals of gin, for a cocktail that's as surprising as it is elegant.

TRACE Tip

For an even more intense flavor, add a few frozen blueberries instead of ice cubes. They'll keep your cocktail nice and cold while gradually releasing their aromas, which pair beautifully with the coffee notes and the botanicals of the gin.

Cheers!
