Gin and tonic fudge!<\/h3>\n

So recently I posted my gin & tonic cupcakes<\/a> recipe and it was a much much MUCH bigger hit that I planned and I just knew I needed to do another gin and tonic recipe, so gin and tonic fudge happened. I have several G&T recipes up my sleeve, and I thought I might as well post another one as its such a popular thing at the minute. Honestly, all the deals, all the popular things are all about gin at the moment!<\/p>\n

I recently went to an event with Paul A Young and Four Pillars Gin which was DELIGHTFUL, and delicious.. and it made me want more gin treats in my life. However, for this particular recipe, I thought I would make it cheaper than having to buy a new bottle of gin, and some tonic, and tried the Sainsbury’s gin and tonic flavouring. Obviously, its never going to taste as good as an ice cold G&T, but it does the trick damn well. You can’t really smell G&T out of the little bottle as its so concentrated it kinda just burns. The taste however? Yes please!<\/p>\n

Gin and tonic<\/h3>\n

As I do love a good G&T, I am always for trying the flavour in new and different things. You can try gin & tonic in a condensed milk fudge if you like, but you’d have to use so much to get the flavour through, that the fudge doesn’t really set very well due to the tonic. Trust me, I have tried… it doesn’t work too well. I have also tried more classic types of fudge, and the flavour just doesn’t come through. However, using just gin does work to a degree, as long as its a nicely flavoured one that is quite strong! My gin & tonic cupcakes<\/a> worked wonderfully with the actual gin, as the gin syrup is utterly dreamy, but for the fudge… I love the essence, or gin on its own.<\/p>\n

Recipe adaptations<\/h3>\n

I put some lime into my fudge to give it a little bit of colour, and to give it a bit of a fruity taste. This is completely optional, I just thought it looked nice! You can easily dye the fudge a colour if you wanted, or change it to milk chocolate<\/a>, or dark chocolate<\/a> – its so easily adaptable you will adore it. I hope you love this recipe as much as I, and my taste testers did! Enjoy! x<\/p>\n
