Celebrate World Gin Day with three classic recipes from No 3 London Dry Gin

Gin lovers across the globe are being invited to mark World Gin Day on 8th June with an exclusive offering from No 3 London Dry Gin, a spirit known for its unique balance of juniper, citrus and spice. With its roots in the quest to craft the world’s finest gin, No 3 London Dry Gin is celebrated for its refreshing taste and classic style, making it a popular choice among connoisseurs. The gin has won numerous accolades, including the prestigious title of World’s Best Gin at the International Spirits Challenge on four separate occasions and was the first to win the Supreme Champion Spirit award in 2019.

Gabrielė Sasnauskaitė, the UK brand ambassador for No 3 Gin, expressed excitement over inviting enthusiasts to celebrate the special day with their multi-award-winning gin. She highlighted the meticulous craftsmanship that goes into producing the gin’s unrivalled taste experience, positioning it as an ideal base for exceptional cocktails on World Gin Day.

In honour of the celebration, Sasnauskaitė recommends three classic cocktail recipes for aficionados to create:

The Perfect Martini

A Martini is traditionally a blend of gin and vermouth. This particular Martini, however, reaches new heights with the inclusion of No 3 Gin thanks to its balanced profile. For the perfect finishing touch, garnish with a twist of lemon.

The Perfect Negroni

The Negroni is an iconic cocktail, but the No 3 Negroni offers a unique twist. The bold, juniper-forward flavour transforms this classic drink, achieving a flawless harmony between the traditional ingredients and a refreshing dry gin twist. To fully enhance its vibrant taste, garnish with a slice of zesty orange.

The Perfect G&T

The gin and tonic is a timeless cocktail, celebrated for its simplicity and elegance. Made with just two ingredients, it’s incredibly easy to prepare at home. What sets this gin and tonic apart is No 3 Gin‘s flavour profile: this London Dry Gin elevates this classic drink, making it an excellent choice for any occasion.

Food Desk

No 3 London Dry Gin is available for purchase from retailers including Majestic Wine and Waitrose Cellar, priced at £39.50 for a 700ml bottle at 46% ABV. Further information can be found on their official website and their Instagram account @no3gin offers inspiration as World Gin Day approaches.
