Base Ingredients

Sweetening Agent

Method

Infusion Process

  1. 1

    Prepare the Botanicals

    In a clean glass jar, combine the juniper berries, coriander seeds, dried orange peel, angelica root, orris root, cardamom pods, cinnamon stick, black peppercorns, lavender flowers, and rosemary sprigs.

  2. 2

    Add Neutral Grain Spirit

    Pour the neutral grain spirit over the botanicals in the jar, making sure they are fully submerged. Seal the jar tightly.

  3. 3

    Infusion Period

    Let the mixture sit in a cool, dark place for 24 to 48 hours. Shake the jar gently every 12 hours to help the flavors meld.

  4. 4

    Strain the Mixture

    After the infusion period, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bottle, discarding the solids.

Sweetening Process

  1. 5

    Prepare Simple Syrup

    In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool.

  2. 6

    Combine with Infused Spirit

    Once the simple syrup has cooled, mix it with the strained infusion. Stir well to combine.

Final Steps

  1. 7

    Bottle the Gin

    Pour the final mixture back into a clean bottle. Seal tightly and label.

  2. 8

    Aging (Optional)

    For a smoother taste, let the gin age for an additional week in a cool, dark place before tasting.
