This is the swiss army knife of cocktails, you can use this in a number of ways and get delicious results every time. Here we will use it as a sensational Gin cocktail, but its depth of flavour lends itself to Rum, Vodka or ditch the booze altogether and knock up a mocktail – it will hit the spot every time!
