On a sunny weekend in September, Ice and a Slice took their pop-up gin bar to Erasmus Darwin House in Lichfield as part of their Georgian Festival Weekend.  The Visit Lichfield team organised a Gin Trail as part of the festivities and included various bars and public houses throughout the city who offered a good selection of gins. So, we donned our wench costumes and served up a selection of 5 craft gins paired with either Peter Spanton No.1 London Tonic or Franklin and Son's Indian Tonic.  The gins we offered were: Cambridge Gin Thomas Dakin Half Hitch Martin Millers Westbourne...

Thanks to every who joined us for our 'Gin Experience' hosted by The Crown Pub, Yoxall in Staffordshire.  The rain held off allowing us to enjoy the sunshine whilst sipping some wonderful gins. Guests picked up their goody bags, complete with balloon glass and a comprehensive guide to all the gins and tonics on offer.  As a change to our tonic offering, we added Thomas Henry Ginger Ale, matched beautifully with Nelson's Gin. All that was left to do was choose which of the 8 gins and 4 tonics they wished to try. Some even enjoyed their gin so much they bought...

We love adding a new product to our range, so we are delighted to reveal five of them!  Our first fruit gins are from the Foxdenton Estate, who already supply Ice and a Slice with their Original 48 London Dry Gin and The Tottering Sharpener Gin.  We are now proud stockists of the Raspberry, Damson, Rhubarb, Raspberry and Sloe Gins. All five are lower in alcohol than more traditional gins and serve beautifully as a long drink with either tonic water or bitter lemon. Alternatively we like to serve the fruit gins with champagne or prosecco for fantastic summer refreshment. We hope you...

What a fabulous day we had serving drinks to those at the Kings Bromley show on Saturday 23 July. Our bar was serving a choice of 4 artisan gin and tonics, including Martin Millers Westbourne Strength, Steampunk, Thomas Dakin and Shetland Reel Ocean Sent.  There was also our Passion in the Ocean cocktail which was made with Passion Fruit and English Vodka, Shetland Reel Ocean Sent and mixed with Franklin & Son's Indian Tonic water.  The cocktail was garnished with a fresh strawberry and a slice of lemon. All seemed to do down very well with the sun shining in abundance!
