Indigo Nights: A Sparkling Symphony of Gin & Blueberry (or Ginger & Blueberry!)
As the sun sets and the evening unfolds, it's time for a cocktail (or mocktail!) that's as enchanting as the night sky. Our 'Indigo Nights' is a delightful blend of botanical gin (or the spicy kick of ginger beer for a mocktail), the bright flavors of our Blueberry Lemon Shrub, a hint of grapefruit zest, and the effervescence of Prosecco (or ginger beer!). It's a sparkling and refreshing drink perfect for unwinding after a long day or celebrating a special occasion.

A Taste of Twilight (with a Mocktail Option):
The 'Indigo Nights' is a sophisticated and refreshing drink that's perfect for any celebration. The combination of gin, blueberry, and grapefruit creates a complex and layered flavor profile, while the Prosecco (or ginger beer) adds a touch of elegance and sparkle.
Mocktail Variation:
For a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the gin and use ginger beer instead of Prosecco. You'll still enjoy the bright, refreshing flavors of our Blueberry Lemon Shrub and grapefruit, with a spicy, bubbly twist.
