Explore the possibilities with most peculiar libation  

Hendrick’s Gin has always held the humble cucumber in the highest regard. The spirit’s unusual distillation  process includes an infusion of rose and cucumber, which yields an extraordinarily smooth gin that is a rare  union of lightness and complexity. There is simply no better way to cap off a Hendrick’s cocktail than with  a little green garnish cut from the same fruit that gives Hendrick’s its pleasingly unusual flavour. Whether  it’s a classic slice, peculiar spears, a bold wedge or an unusual tongue, the cucumber gives ample opportunity  for expressive experimentation in shape and size that is sure to please the eye as well as the palate. Grab a  basket of cucumbers and a bottle of Hendrick’s Gin at Boozy.com to explore the wondrous possibilities of  the most peculiar libation, a Hendrick’s & Tonic.  

Charmaine Thio, Southeast Asia Brand Ambassador for Hendrick’s Gin, comments, “Hendrick’s  Gin’s infusions of rose and cucumber create a concoction that is peculiar yet extraordinarily inviting. We  garnish a Hendrick’s G&T with a slice of cucumber as a nod to the infusion of Cucumber in our gin, and also  because it adds something magical to the humble mixture of gin and tonic that nothing else can. The garnish  climbs on top of the cocktail and gives it extra layers and depth, not just of flavour, scent and sight, but of  texture. It is almost as if it brings the cocktail from two dimensions into three.
