This summery weather is perfect for our new lingonberry gin prototype! Native to Scandinavia, lingonberries are small, tart red berries that are common in Nordic desserts. Naturally pink thanks to the lingonberry maceration, it’s beautiful, refreshing, and delicious! #vintersol #aquavit #akvavit #gin #distillery #distilling #handmade #cocktails #scandi #scandinavia #nordic #putney #london #londonarches #londonbars #londonoutdoors #fredagsbar #istillfamily #popupbar #londoncocktails #londoncocktailscene #londondistillery #prototypegin
