The weekend may be over, but during the festive season it seems that any night of the week is fair game when it comes to letting your hair down and getting into the party spirit. Just as you would pick a different outfit to set the tone for different nights out – or in, if you’re in need of some recharging – so too should you pick your drink depending on the occasion.
Nothing but Pure Spirit
We’ve picked out a couple of our favourite cocktails; one for when we’re feeling ready to take on the evening, and the other for when we’re relaxing with our closest friends. Our favourite thing about Crystal Head is that it’s a neutral grain gluten free spirit and it doesn’t contain any additives at all. It’s also distilled four times and then filtered seven times, including through semi-precious crystals called Herkimer diamonds, meaning its purity will leave you feeling a little less groggy the next day! We hope they provide a little inspiration for this party season, and a welcome alternative to the ladles of mulled wine that feature on the corner of every Christmas market we come across.
