As I’m a bit of a gin virgin and only tried Gordon’s pink gin. I’d like to know what this sloe gin is all about
Is it bitter and what would you suggest drinking it with?
Might treat myself this weekend....mmmm
Gin as well  |

I’m not normally a gin person but I so love pink gin with pink lemonade lucozade....lol
Dying to try sloe gin and rhubarb and ginger
Wouldn’t know if Gordon’s is classed as crap or not as I haven’t tried anything else
I’m always open to suggestions
I won’t be making my own as haven’t got the patience

I make my own every year.
As others have said it’s sweet as you have to add lots of sugar to make the sloe berries palatable.
It’s like a lethal hit of alcoholic Ribena. |

"Sloe gin is the correct gin for the cocktail Slow Confortable Screw (giggles ).
Sloe gin ( slow ), Southern Comfort ( the comfortable) and vodka and orange juice ( which is a screwdriver )."
Well I did not know that.
Thanks |

"I'll make some sloe gin once we get the first frost to prick the berries "
Soles down my way are already ripe for picking...(6 weeks early). They’ll be knackered by the time the first frosts arrive. Suggest picking now if ready and pop them in the freezer overnight, simulates frost! |
