I'm a gin man, so a friend bought me a bottle of Bombay Bramble as a gift. He said I could make some fun cocktails with it.

This stuff is horrifyingly bad. It's like drinking a bottle of old lady perfume.

Looks like it could make a fantastic gin fizz or tom collins in theory. Especially if you sub orange for lemon. Doesn't sound appetizing on the rocks though

I'll have to try it even with the bad reco…. I'm a glutton for punishment.

Based on what I've heard about Malort, I'd probably stick with the Bramble.

You don't want to (finally) fight your father in law?

You should try unflavored Gin. It's generally marketed as "Vodka" and tastes much better

"Kick your mouth in the balls"

The Malort crowd sourced slogans campaign is one of the better liquor marketing campaigns to ever exist. It's even funnier when you are trying to shrug off a hangover in Chicago and can still taste last night's Malort shots your buddy who moved there after school served you

Have you had Khortytsa? It's a really nice vodka. As for gin, the closest I've come to "flavored" gin until now is Sapphire East. It's quite tasty.

Maybe that's what they were going for. It's literally got a picture of an old lady on the label.

Received a bottle of Beefeater Pink and was told same thing about 'fun' drinks. Nope, not fun.

"Beefeater Pink" does conjure up some interesting mental pictures. Not so sure gin is among them though.

I actually had some of this at my wife's aunt's house this summer. Was really nice. Doesn't look like it's available in the states.
