HOW TO DRINK OLD FASHIONED GIN LIQUEUR

Our collaboration with Marionette Liqueur brings the best of both our worlds into a delicious ginny take on an Old Fashioned.

Is it a gin? Is it a liqueur? Well, it's kind of both.

Old Fashioned Gin Liqueur is a blend of high-proof Rare Dry Gin that's been aged for two years in Orange Curaçao barrels (courtesy of Marionette) and Marionette's iconic Orange Curaçao, which also spent two years ageing in these same barrels. Throw in a touch of fresh Orange Curaçao for good measure, and you've got one delicious gin liqueur for your sipping pleasure.

When it comes to drinking it, you should start by trying it neat, and then pour some over ice and add an orange twist for the perfect ginny take on an Old Fashioned. And when you're really ready to take things up a notch, we highly recommend giving one of the below drinks a go. Fancy Margaritas anyone?
