Summer garden party

Summer is almost over but it looks like our Belgian sun isn’t leaving just yet. So invite your friends, make some party snacks and serve an extra ordinary Gin & Tonic. With Hendrick’s gin’s recipes you’ll have everything you need for a great garden party. We tried them a couple of weeks ago with some friends. Our dear friend Bart prepared the original Hendrick’s gin & tonic and the girls tried the Countdown Cocktail. During our fun afternoon, we made a tutorial to show you how to make the perfect gin tonic with Hendrick’s gin.

Take it from us, you won’t get bored. They also have a blog with all different kinds of recipes, this is the website where we found the cocktail that we made.
