tarquin

Best raspberry gin

This Cornish gin is deliciously tart and fruity, with a hint of appetising bittersweetness. We think it would make a delicious pink negroni with rosé vermouth and Campari.

The Cotswolds Distillery No.1 wildflower gin

Available from Master of Malt (£37.55), Amazon (£40.95)

Cotswolds wildflower gin

Best floral pink gin

This vibrant gin adds lavender, cornflowers, orange and rhubarb root to the brand’s original (and excellent) London dry base spirit. Expect juniper, but also a heady floral character and almost bitter, zesty orange that ends in a marmalade-like finish. In hue and taste, it’s not dissimilar to a bitter Italian aperitif, and accordingly, the suggested serve is spritz-style with tonic water. We’d also suggest topping it up with sparkling wine, or using it in a negroni or in place of Campari in an americano.

Available from:
Master of Malt (£37.55)
Amazon (£40.95)

Hensol Castle blood orange gin

Best citrussy pink gin

Bittersweet blood orange is the star of the show in this nicely balanced, flavoured gin, bursting with sunny citrus notes and juniper from the underlying base spirit. Try in a spritz with a wedge of blood orange.

Available from:
Hensol Castle (£30)
Amazon (£29.90)
