Gin and Juice: 3 Bombay Sapphire Cocktails

Gin is no longer that staid, old man’s spirit that it used to be. This summer, the Juniper berry-based classic has taken a whole string of new identities in a number of various cocktails. The Manual met with the folks at Bombay Sapphire, who shared three cocktails with us: the Sapphire Peppered Peach Tea Collins, the French 75 and the ART Traction. Once you make them, we promise they’re so good you won’t be able to stop. Plus, your friends will be impressed at your new-found mixology sills.
