What’s in Our Glass?

Bring a Bottle Podcast episode 91 Franklin and Sons Mixers

In this episode, we’re focusing on mixers, and more specifically a company producing premium drinks since 1886 – Franklin & Sons. 

First up in Episode 91, Helena uses the Pink Grapefruit Soda in her own cocktail concoction, the ‘Palovignon’ which goes down very well indeed.

Size: 200ml
Find here: £17.50 24x200ml

Next up is the Rhubarb and Hibiscus Tonic Water. Light, slightly tart and sweet on the nose, Helena and Eddy decide that pink gin or vodka would make the perfect dance partner for it.
