Organizing a gin tasting evening with friends is the perfect way to have a good time together and discover new, tasty creations. But how do you best approach this? In this article we will give you all the tips for an unforgettable evening.
SELF-SERVICE OR SERVICE?
Imagine a gin and tonic bar as the radiant centrepiece of your party, an absolute eye-catcher. You can choose to let your guests make the most delicious combinations themselves, which makes it extra interactive. If you prefer to take care of everything yourself, consider hiring service for professional cocktails.
BOTANICALS: THE FLAVOUR MAKERS OF YOUR COCKTAIL
In our gin packages you will find 12 premium herbs such as juniper, green cardamom, and lavender. These botanicals are the flavor enhancers of your gin & tonic. For example, a Bombay Sapphire goes perfectly with a neutral or floral tonic, and a garnish of lemon.
DRESS CODE & THEME
A Gin & Tonic party requires a dazzling theme and a fitting dress code. Some examples:
- Vintage Garden Party: Guests in pastel colored clothes with floral prints. Decorate the garden with flowers and lanterns.
- Gin & Jazz: Think 1920s style, with flapper dresses and pearls. Jazz music in the background completes the picture.
- Gin & Boho: Comfortable, bohemian style clothing. Decorate the space with dream catchers and soft cushions.
Make sure the dress code is clear to all guests and make it easy to follow the theme.
EXTRA TOUCH: POSTER FOR COCKTAIL RECIPES
A fun idea is to hang up a poster where each guest can write down their favorite cocktail. This way you can give each other the best ideas and you might even discover your new favorite gin combination.
CLOSING
Organizing a gin tasting evening with friends requires some preparation, but with these tips you are well on your way to a great and fun evening. Make sure you have an inviting gin and tonic bar, spoil your guests with delicious botanicals and don't forget the designated driver. Choose a theme that suits you, and enjoy!
