This smoked cinnamon gin & tonic is in a class all of its own.
Yes, you heard that right. Smoked cinnamon takes this Gin and tonic to subtle flavor heaven. It adds a festive twist and depth to the cocktail, adding a wow factor for your guest.
Whatever the weather, this eye-catching Smoked Cinnamon G&T cocktail should enchant your imagination to a whimsical beach with a pink shoreline~📞hello Bermuda🏝!
Making a smoky cocktail might seem intimidating, but trust me, with just a little technique and safety in mind (of course), you too can make this cocktail or any smoked infused cocktail at your next sip and chill.
For this smoked cinnamon Gin and tonic cocktail, you need a good quality Gin, if possible, get one with a floral note. I partnered with Empress 1908 Gin a few months back to create this cocktail, and it was a delight. Empress 1908 gin transforms from deep indigo hue to bright lavender, soft pink, or fuchsia depending on the mixer added. That’s a Wawu if you ask me.
