Stocking the wedding bar

Hendrick’s Gin is for a discerning taste…

by Natasha Slinko
A popular weddings creation is the a light drizzle of the gin to Spoon Canapés with a complimentary to the flavors of the appetizers. The list of the ingredients was longer than most shopping lists and more complex than a soufflé.

Imagine combining the gin, Orangeflower water drops, single cream, lemon, sugar, eggwhite (yes, I said eggwhites), elderflower liquor, etc.

THE GAELIC SPLASH

Ingredients
1 ½ oz. Hendrick’s Gin
2 oz. orange juice
½ oz. apricot brandy
¼ oz. grenadine
apricot slice/orange twist for garnish

Method
• Add 1 ½ oz. Hendrick’s Gin, 2 oz. orange juice and ½ oz. apricot brandy to shaker. Stir and strain into a martini glass.
• Slowly add ¼ oz. grenadine.

Hendrick’s Gin is not for everyone… but you can enjoy it as a Bloody Caesar, Dirty Martini, Gin and Tonic, pictured left, Signature Drinks like The Gaelic Splash, pictured above, or straight up on the rocks.

Finlandia Vodka
by Shelley Waugh

Brand's harmony with nature

“The Cranes,” left, walking in the barley field is one of Finlandia Vodka's four limited edition charity water bottles by artist Klaus Haapaniemi in honour of the 40th anniversaries of Earth Day and the vodka company.

The four designs are “The Very Tired Rooster” representing the Midnight Sun, which shines for 73 days straight in the north of Finland; Untouched Nature represented by a Norse mythological character, “Ratatosk”, the red squirrel; Six-row barley featuring “The Cranes” walking in the barley field;  and Representing Pure Glacial Spring Water, “Thiaridae” freshwater snail.

Each design represents one of the vodka company's core elements: the Midnight Sun, untouched nature, six-row barley and pure glacial spring water. These one-liter SIGG water bottles sold for US$28. Finlandia divided all the profits among four global environmental projects selected to promote sustainability beyond the brand’s distillation footprint. This cause-marketing program is an early step in a new, concerted effort to explore sustainability and the brand’s harmony with nature. Visit www.finlandiawaterbottle.com
