From Blue Monday to "Woo, it's Monday!" See how Craft Gin Clubbers have been raising our spirits!
Jan 18, 2021
“Phew! That was a long year!”, we said... 2 weeks into January! Blue Monday may have arrived during what has been a rather trying year for all of us, but here at Craft Gin Club we’re all about raising spirits (pun, obviously intended!), delivering craft gin surprises month after month, and bringing small joys to our lovely gin-loving community! That’s why we’re turning a typically ‘Blue Monday’ into a “Woo, it’s Monday!” feeling!
We’re switching the Monday Blues, for happy news, positive playlists, surprise giveaways, ginny jokes, new events to look forward to and a couple of GIN-tastic recipes to help us along the way, of course! Read on to find out how!
To start us off, we’re taking some GIN-spiration from the positive folks of the Craft Gin Club community in the hope that they can spark a little bit of ginny joy and brighten up your day too!
It’s such a joy to see all you gin lovers enjoying your Gin of the Month boxes! From excited #GinBoxSelfies to #Ginstagram photo competition entries - it’s safe to say, it’s the little (and ginny!) things that really make a difference and it’s our pleasure to be able to share them with you! Happy ginning, you lovely lot!
Join these Craft Gin Clubbers who proudly raised a glass to the good times and their love of gin in 2020!
We’ve got just the thing to celebrate the end of Monday! Our Monday Funday Martini! It may look a little blue, but this delicious citrus spin on a classic Martini will certainly bring a bit of cheer to your evening!*
*Best served with a side of dancing and a quick call to your gin pals to tell them how much you love them!
50ml Gin
20ml Dry Vermouth
5ml Blue Curaçao
Citrus wheel or twist for garnish
Method
Add the ingredients in a mixing glass with ice and stir until the glass
become frosty. Strain into a Martini glass (or similar!) and garnish with a wheel or twist of citrus.
Nothing brings us quite as much happiness as gin… AND our cute and cuddly gin pals! We see hundreds of Craft Gin Club pet pics each month and they are always guaranteed to make our day!
What is a “Woo, it’s Monday!” feeling without a motivational playlist of all our favourite tracks that make us grin (and gi!n!) from ear to ear (can you ‘gin’ from ear to ear?! Never mind…!) We’ve created this one just for YOU, gin lovers! It’s pure joy... distilled into one happy sipping playlist!
Happy days! Just look at how GIN-credible these Craft Gin Club members’ cocktail creations are looking! *heart-eyes* Learning a new skill can bring you so much satisfaction and when it comes to mixology there’s a tasty tipple involved too! What we like to call a ‘gin-gin’ situation!
This could be just the tonic to Blue Monday! A Blue G&T using this intriguing and utterly delicious blue tonic from our friends at Fitch & Leedes (who featured in our November 2020 Gin of the Month box!) Available on our online shop in packs of 6 or 24 for a super sipping experience!
