4 Cocktail recipes & WIN Mr Gladstone’s Curious Emporium wines

Have you ever come across something that combines two of the things you love the most?

Well, I have. Sweets and wine.

 Mr Gladstone’s Curious Emporium has developed fusion wines that have perfectly captured the essence of your favourite tuck shop sweets. From Pear Drops to Rhubarb and Custard, Pineapple Cube to Strawberry Bon Bon, cocktail evening just got that bit sweeter.

And just in time for the summer holidays, I’m running a giveaway for those four different wines: pineapple cube, strawberry Bon Bon, rhubarb & custard and pear drop. Before I do though, I thought I might entice you in with a few suggestions of what you can do with these luscious wine fusions.

 Of course, if you do win, you can just drink them on their own, but if you fancy something a bit fancier, here you go.

 The Strawberry bomb

Decorate with a Strawberry

In The Orchard

Serve with fresh mint if you like and over ice.

 Tropical cuboid

Serve over ice

Rhubarb & Custard

Equal measures, serve as is.

So those are my suggestions, what are yours?

You can enter to win via rafflecopter below.

If you simply can’t wait Mr Gladstone’s Curious Emporium wine is readily available in Tesco, Nisa and Jempsons stores for £4-5!
