Hendrick?s Gin Celebrates Spring With This Fun Recipe

It?s officially spring moth, and of course we love our G&T?s so this seemed like a great thing to share with our readers! This time of year is an important one for Hendrick’s as two of their key ingredients are developed. Spring is the season of new beginnings; animals awaken, fresh blossoms bloom, and the earth seems to come to life again. Now is the time to plant your cucumbers and get those roses ready for the hot times ahead. In that revival spirit, every September our delightful planet Earth becomes part of a rather curious phenomenon – the Equinox. Literally meaning “equal night,” this bi-yearly occurrence marks the only time of year when day and night are of equal length. This cosmic wonder occurs when the earth is tilted neither towards nor away from the sun and signals the end of winter days and the beginning of preparations for the summer ahead.
