“There’s always going to be a lot of sugar added to sloe gin because [of] the astringency of the sloe berry, but we add as little as we possibly can to allow bartenders to balance drinks,” says Plymouth’s Sebastian Hamilton-Mudge. “I like using it in Negronis because they bring a little [sulfur-like] content to the drink.” At Plymouth’s onsite Refectory Bar, Hamilton-Mudge presents this drink in individual glass bottles for a fun, decorative touch.
