Garden Grove
A garden party in a glass. Refreshing, vegetal with a hint of garlic flavour. This unique cocktail is like no other. Garlic is not a typical ingredient in most known cocktails but Reunion Moonshine's Garlic flavours play very nicely with the cucumber and the botanicals of the Top Shelf Gin, more so the Juniper. Flavours reminiscent of a fresh garden salad, but in cocktail form. Perfect for those hot summer afternoons or paired with a nice meal. Unexpected flavours presented in an elegant and approachable manner.

- 1 ½ oz Top Shelf Gin
- ½ oz Garlic Reunion Moonshine
