It’s Valentine’s Day & today I am celebrating with a #tippletrade with Belinda @thepatronsaintofgin 💙💗

Belinda has sooooooo many delicious recipes to choose from and I have changed my mind so many times!

I knew it had to be blue because Belinda is only just coming around to blue cocktails but I of course I 💙 them a whole lot.

I have recreated Belinda’s Post from yesterday (a recipe she was originally going to trade with @servedbysoberon

Gin Blue Sour:
50ml @bombaysapphire Star Of Bombay
10ml Blue Curaçao (I used VOK)
30ml Lemon Juice
15ml Lower Sugar simple syrup
30ml Aquafaba

Place all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice and shake vigorously for around a minute.

Double strain into a gorgeous glass that looks like one from Belinda’s collection and sprinkle with an excessive amount of love

I don’t have a fancy light box like Belinda, so I used some black tiles and natural sunlight to try and recreate her stunning photography!

Tipple Trade is fun event created by @wisecraft_mixology and @scottishmixology . All you have to do is team up with a fellow #drinkstagrammer, look through their profile, choose a drink, recreate or make a riff of it and then post it on the same day.

Salud & happy Valentines Day!
