‘WOW’ your guests this summer with our delicious and easy to make gin-based cocktail. Whether you’re on holiday, relaxing in the garden, hosting a BBQ, or enjoying a summer day by the seaside at Filey, this cocktail is bound to be the star of the show. 

Our Filey Beachcomber cocktail is refreshing and light, with a beautiful balance of sweet and fruity flavours from the pineapple juice and Cointreau, and a nice touch of mint and lime that gives a refreshing taste.  

Ingredients:  

• 50ml Filey Signature Gin 

• 25ml Cointreau 

• 12.5ml fresh lime juice 

• 12.5ml honey syrup 

• A few mint leaves 

• A splash of pineapple juice 

• A pineapple wedge and a mint sprig for garnish 

Method: 

1. In a shaker, combine the Filey Signature gin, Cointreau, lime juice, honey syrup, mint leaves, and pineapple juice. 
   
   
2. Add ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. 
   
   
3. Strain into a highball glass filled with ice. 
   
   
4. Garnish with a pineapple wedge and a sprig of mint. 

The gin gives a nice botanical touch to the drink and the honey syrup adds a nice sweetness to balance the acidity of lime. Cheers!
