One of our fellow drinking friends has conducted some rigorous scientific research into Rhubarb Gin.

Outside of drinking interesting booze I’m also rather interested in making it. However, lacking both license and equipment to distill and the patience to brew at home I’m currently sticking with the joys of flavouring spirits. I’ve done a few vodka based experiments (with the liquorice vodka being a repeated success which never lasts very long) but after discussing flavour extraction with the chaps at Hawksmoor (where the horseradish gin in the bloody marys is rather nice) and trying Bob Bob Ricard’s rhubarb G&T I decided to try making rhubarb gin.

Take a look at his findings, Billy’s Booze Blog – Rhubarb Gin, two ways

Anyone tried anything similiar, a sloe gin perhaps?

I’m Neil, and this is my home to talk about cocktails, spirits, and places where the two combine. I’ll be focussing on Cocktails in Birmingham – a scene that I think is lacking.

There are some good bars, and bartenders out there so may as well let the world know. Of course, London and other world cities will no doubt be encountered along the way.

It must be said, I’m not in the business, I’m just a simple guy who likes a nice drink. I’m sorry but a Woo Woo really doesn’t do it for me, a Dry Gin Martini on the other hand is going to appeal a lot more.
