Breaking news.

It’s the breaking news that has just seriously made our weekend.

Yes, since it came to our attention that Gordon’s is releasing a limited-edition PINK gin… we’ve been waiting with bated breath for a release date.

And now that release date is finally here.

Step forward and take a bow Tesco Ireland – the retailer has confirmed to us that from SUNDAY September 3, Gordon’s pink gin will be exclusively on its shelves nationwide.

Rejoice!

However, we should also highlight that as it is a limited edition offering, you’d probably want to be fairly quick to get your hands on a celebrated bottle.

“Inspired by an original Gordon’s recipe from the 1880s, the pink gin is perfectly crafted to balance the refreshing taste of Gordon’s with the natural sweetness of raspberries and strawberries, with the tang of redcurrant served up in a unique blushing tone,” reads the official description of the coveted limited-edition drink.

“The berry taste and hue are achieved with natural fruit flavours only and its juniper profile is subtle and mild.”

So in short, this gin definitely sounds like something that is right up our street.

And if you’re looking for some serving inspo, we’re already getting pretty excited about this Gordon’s pink spritz:

  • Mix two part Gordon’s pink gin with two parts lemonade and one part prosecco.
  • Serve in a large wine glass filled with ice and garnish with fresh strawberries and raspberries.
Happy weekend, folks!
