Creating your own gluten free alcoholic drinks in a can is simpler than you might think. With a few carefully chosen ingredients, you can craft beverages that are not only refreshing but also kind to your gluten-free lifestyle. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 can of gluten-free vodka or gin (choose a brand certified gluten-free)
- 1/2 cup fresh fruit juice (such as orange, cranberry, or apple)
- 1/4 cup sparkling water or gluten-free tonic
- 1 tablespoon agave syrup or honey (optional, for added sweetness)
- Fresh herbs for garnish (like mint or rosemary)
- A squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice
Feel free to substitute the fruit juice with your favorite gluten-free options, and adjust the sweetness according to your taste. This is your canvas, so paint it with flavors that speak to you.
Instructions
Ready to bring a bit of Devon countryside magic to your glass? Follow these simple steps:
- Start by chilling your chosen can of gluten-free vodka or gin in the fridge. A cold drink is always more refreshing.
- In a mixing glass, combine the fresh fruit juice and sparkling water or tonic.
- Add the agave syrup or honey if you’re in the mood for a touch of sweetness. Stir gently to blend.
- Pour in the chilled vodka or gin, then add a squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice to brighten the flavors.
- Mix well and pour over ice into a tall glass, or directly into a chilled can if you’re feeling adventurous and eco-friendly.
- Garnish with fresh herbs for an aromatic finish. Mint or rosemary add a lovely fragrance that complements the drink beautifully.
There’s something soothing about stirring a drink just as there is about stirring a pot of stew. It’s the anticipation of flavors coming together, like the stories my Mum would weave as she baked.
