If you are like us, you are probably getting sick or are already sick. There are many things you can do to get better but did you know that Gin can help! Yes, enjoying a delicious gin cocktail can help you get over that cold, fight off coughs and lung congestion. Thanks to the medicinal benefits of Juniper Berries, the main ingredient in Gin, you could help yourself get better. Since it’s the fall season when most people tend to get sick, we wanted to share some Hendrick’s Gin fall cocktails that are sure to have you feeling better.
Gin is great for those who desire a more “natural” spirit. Not only will the juniper berries in these cocktails help fight off your cold, but it also helps if your joints are aching, helps with digestion, and bloating (thanks to the diuretic capabilities of juniper berries). Plus it’s a great way to lull you into a nice warming sleep. What else is there to say but let’s jump right into these delicious Hendrick’s Gin fall cocktails.
