Tip
The gin no. 3 by Inge und der Honigbär is perfect for the French 75 with its tart freshness and playful liveliness. Lemon and smoky notes on the nose, developing a honey tone on the tongue, creamy with the soft aromas of tarragon and verbena, felt on the finish you get a subtle peppery spiciness.
