The Gin Passport

The Fifth Day of Christmas

On the Fifth Day of Christmas.... 🎶

As the song goes, today my true love gave to me five gold rings! 💍💍💍💍💍

So this one was always going to need a little sparkle. I've gone for Malfy Con Limone, the Italian lemon gin, which has five distinctive yellow (I'm going with gold!) rings around the bottle — a rather perfect match for today's verse.

I'm keeping things bright and sunny with a Gin Spritz, bringing in another Italian favourite for a little extra festive flavour. A splash of limoncello, some bubbles and plenty of ice make this a wonderfully easy Christmas drink.

FIVE GOLD RINGS 💍

50ml Malfy Con Limone Gin

25ml Italian limoncello

Prosecco, to top

Soda water, to taste

Build in a large wine glass filled with ice, stir gently and garnish with a lemon wheel. Then sit back and admire those five golden rings! 🍋🥂
