Indulge in a garden-side tipple this sunny weekend with an Irish twist on the Hugo Spritz.
Widely hailed as this season’s standout beverage, the modest Hugo Spritz is a breezy, refreshing Italian cocktail. An ideal choice for sipping on warm evenings, it’s surprisingly simple to prepare, perhaps more than you first expect.
Here, Dingle Gin reveals their signature method.
Ingredients:
20 millilitres of Dingle Gin
20 millilitres elderflower cordial
25 millilitres soda water
120 millilitres Prosecco
Fresh mint leaves
Method: Rim a chilled highball glass with sea salt, then fill with ice. Build in the Dingle Orange & Sea Salt Gin, fresh lime juice and agave syrup, stirring until the glass frosts. Top with crisp grapefruit soda and finish with a grapefruit wedge. The sea salt rim is the finishing touch. it echoes the salt already woven through the gin, giving the citrus a savoury edge that rounds out the whole drink.
Garnish: Bruised mint leaves and a plump lime wedge.
Dingle Gin is stocked across the country in premium off-licences and supermarkets, including O’Brien’s, SuperValu, Dunnes, Tesco, and the Celtic Whiskey Shop.
