Helen’s Starry Sky: Sloe Gin Firecracker
The ultimate mark of festive joy. Deep, rich, filled with the warm winter-berry deliciousness of Sloe Gin and finished with white rum. This Sloe Gin Firecracker cocktail will work all December-long – and well into the New Year too. It comes inspired by Helen’s Starry Sky, where delicate hand-painted blooms emerge from the sky like tiny fireworks to create a starry canvas with bright pops of colour. It really is a firecracker of a cocktail. Serve by the glass in tumblers or punch-style in a large bowl with cranberry-studded ice cubes for dramatic effect.
