Keen to try Ryan Reynold’s Aviation Gin? Here are some simple gin cocktails from the funny man himself

Fly above the clouds (responsibly) with these Aviation American Gin cocktails.

Ah gin. It’s the magical spirit that’s certainly having a moment in recent times. Whether you like it with tonic, mix it with fruit, or shake it up in a cocktail, Aviation American Gin is one that you need to add to your list. 

A super-smooth spirit stemming from Portland, Oregon, Hollywood actor,  producer, comedic celeb Ryan Reynolds Aviation Gin is crafted in small batches with the utmost care. Distilled using a proprietary maceration recipe of 8 distinct botanicals, to create a medley of soft flavour. Here cardamom, coriander, French lavender, anise seed, sarsaparilla juniper, and two variations of orange peel are suspended in a pure, neutral grain spirit for 18 hours before the distillation process begins. Never losing sight of the power of personal touch, much like their original marketing tactics, Aviation Gin is hand-packed into all boxes before being distributed to thirsty folk on an international scale.

While an introduction to the spirit may not be warranted for all gin-loving pop culture fanatics, it is, however, oh so worthy. To show you just how worthy, Ryan Reynold’s has shared his favourite cocktail recipes that will take this spirit to lip-smacking new heights.
