HOW DO YOU BLOODY DRINK IT?
WE ASKED THE PROS AT SOME OF SYDNEY'S BEST BARS.
Bloody Shiraz Gin is not like our other gins, and there’s one question we get asked a lot - How do you bloody drink it?
So we tasked our Brand Ambassador, Sam with heading into some of our favourite Sydney bars to ask the pros, a.k.a. your friendly bartenders, this exact question. And their answers did not disappoint.
