Sloe Gin
6 products
Sloe gin is a rich and fruity liqueur made by infusing sloe berries (the fruit of the blackthorn tree) with gin, along with sugar and sometimes additional spices. The process involves steeping the wild, tart sloe berries in gin for several months, allowing the fruit's deep, complex flavors to blend with the spirit. The result is a dark, ruby-red gin with a smooth, sweet yet tart taste that combines the natural berry flavours with the aromatic base of the gin.
Traditionally made in the autumn after the first frost, sloe gin has a long history in the UK, often enjoyed as a warming winter drink or served in cocktails. It’s typically sweeter than regular gin, with a full-bodied, jammy flavor and hints of almond or spice depending on the recipe.
Sloe gin is perfect served neat, on the rocks, or mixed into classic cocktails like a Sloe Gin Fizz or a Sloe Negroni, offering a delicious, fruity alternative to traditional gin.
