Gingle Bells

Gingle all the way through Christmas with these delicious gin encased baubles

The holiday season is a magical time of year filled with festive gatherings, sparkling decorations and the joy of gifting something special. This year, the Wild Hibiscus Flower Company has returned with yet again, the perfect gift to get the holiday spirit started. Its specialty product 'Gingle Bells' is a gift set of six floral gin baubles, guaranteed to spread the Christmas joy in the form of a unique gift, celebratory cocktail or beautiful party decoration.

Each of the eye-catching baubles are all hand made by Wild Hibiscus Flower Co., who craft the Australian dry gin themselves in their own distillery. The gin is then infused with six different home-grown, natural botanicals for a distinctive flavour and colour.

Flavours include Finger Lime, B'Lure Butterfly Pea Flower, Wattleseed, Snow Chrysanthemum, Wild Hibiscus Flower and Pepperberry. For a decorative touch, each bauble's botanical flavour can be visibly seen in its centre with an ethereal floral element encased inside. The gift set includes two 54ml baubles at 37% alcohol volume and four 50ml baubles at 40% alcohol volume.

"Since our first launch in 2018, we have had extremely positive feedback from both corporate and individual customers. Many have bought multiple boxes to give as gifts to both friends, family and colleagues and they reported it really created the 'wow' factor as it's such a unique gift," says Lee Etherington, co-creator of Gingle Bells Gin.

Each flavour is carefully created to work in sync with the cocktail recipes provided in each gift box; an entertaining and fun way to celebrate this Christmas, or perfect party favour or event decoration. To match the Finger Lime Gin is the 'Gin-F-Bomb', a classic gin and tonic style cocktail. For the B'Lure Butterfly Pea Flower Gin, it is the 'Purple Rain', a blue cocktail that turns pink and purple when lime juice is added. The Wattleseed Gin is best enjoyed in the 'Wattleseed Express', an espresso martini cocktail. The Snow Chrysanthemum Gin is finest served in the 'Temple of the Sun' a tropical and fruity cocktail. To match the Wild Hibiscus Flower Gin are the refreshing 'Rise 'n Shine' prosecco cocktails. Finally, the Pepperberry Gin is perfect in the 'Berry Pepper Kiss' cocktail for a bit of a kick.      

The charming gift set is both beautiful to the taste and to the sight. Not only ideal as a gift, the baubles make striking Christmas tree or table centrepieces for those hosting holiday get-togethers. "Having worked in the craft cocktail industry for over 20 years now, the team at Wild Hibiscus Flower Company know a thing or two about creating great drinks and unforgettable moments," says Lee.  The Wild Hibiscus Flower Company has been selling edible flower products to enhance food and cocktails since it was founded by Lee Etherington in 1998.

Gingle Bells can be purchased for RRP AUD$79.00 at the website and select stockists.
