To pay homage to the great Isle of Harris Distillery romance between brand storyteller Lauren MacSween and her husband, Pim Verhees—who met on a blind date at the distillery and later got engaged on the island itself—the distillery has created an exquisite cocktail, ‘The Ballad of Lauren and Pim.’

Blending citrus, floral, honey, and anise notes, this delicious take on the mimosa is the perfect drink to enjoy with your loved one this Valentine’s Day. 

Ingredients 

  • 40ml Isle of Harris Gin 
  • 20ml mead 
  • 20ml freshly squeezed tangerine juice 
  • Sparkling orange wine 
  • A dash of Absinthe 
  • Orange peel to garnish 

Method: 

  • Shake all ingredients, except the sparkling wine, and fine-strain over ice into a highball glass. 
  • Top with sparkling wine, stir gently to mix. 

Happy Valentines, enjoy!
