The Botanist: Spicy & Rested
Spicy & Rested
Our take on the Paloma, Spicy & Rested is an effervescent serve that marries the depth of our aged gin with the refreshing notes of grapefruit, then takes your taste buds for a walk with a tinge of jalapeño-infused hot honey (made with fellow B Corp Hilltop Honey).
Ingredients
- 50ml The Botanist Islay Cask Rested Gin
- 50ml Grapefruit juice
- 20ml Jalapeño honey (see below)

Jalapeño Honey
- Ingredients: 200g honey, 5 jalapeños (you can take out the seeds to reduce heat), 10ml apple cider vinegar
