Pink on Pink Gin 2026: Seven Years, Still Sells Out, Still Worth It

Seven years on, and Pink on Pink still does the thing. Our annual seasonal Pink Gin is back — soft, floral, citrus-driven, and naturally pink from the pomegranate (no food colouring, no shortcuts). Built for Mother’s Day, long spring lunches, and anyone worth pouring properly for. Below are the three signature serves from this year’s recipe card — straight from us, no edits.

About the 2026 Release

Pink on Pink Gin 2026 is our annual seasonal release, crafted in honour of the women who shape us, back us, and keep us in line when we need it most. This year’s batch is infused with Pink Lady Apples, Watermelon, Strawberries, Rhubarb, Pomegranate, Pink Grapefruit and a solid backbone of Juniper. Sweet, tart, soft and floral — built to be poured over ice and enjoyed slowly.

One release, once a year. When it’s gone, it’s gone.

FAQ

What does Pink on Pink Gin taste like?

Soft, floral and citrus-driven. Pink Lady Apple leads with natural sweetness, followed by juicy watermelon and a streak of rhubarb. Pomegranate adds depth, with juniper grounding the whole thing. The finish is clean and lightly floral.

Is it really pink without food colouring?

Yep. The colour comes straight from the pomegranate. No food dye, no shortcuts.

How many bottles do you make?

One release, once a year. Seven years of this tradition and it still sells out. When it’s gone, it’s gone until next spring.

Pour Generously, Gift Properly

Whether you’re buying it for yourself, for her, or for anyone worth celebrating — Pink on Pink is the good stuff. Sip it, shake it, or pour the jug and let the afternoon do its thing.
