4. Hot Cross Bun Gin Spritz

We love a gin spritz at HM Gin and this Easter cocktail recipe was designed to showcase all the traditional hot cross bun flavours of our HM Hot Cross Bun Gin as a spritz cocktail.

In this Easter cocktail we use the sweet citrus of Cointreau and the dryness of Prosecco to balance all flavours. This Hot Cross Bun Gin Spritz Easter cocktail recipe is the perfect way to celebrate the April month, hence why it made our list of best Easter cocktails in Australia.

  • Orange slice and cinnamon stick to garnish

  2. Add your orange slice and cinnamon stick garnish.

At HM Gin we believe the Gin Mule is perfect at any time of the year. Based on the traditional Moscow Mule cocktail, we normally make our Gin Mule’s with HM Woodcutter Gin but to spice things up over Easter we are subbing out the Woodcutter to replace it with our HM Hot Cross Bun Gin.
