Mint 500

A fresh and light favourite.

Created back in 2006, this drink has always been one that’s flown off the shelf and into the glasses of visitors to this hip-hop-filled cocktail haven. There are a lot of great flavours in here, which create an incredibly fresh cocktail.

Style: Up
Glass: Cocktail

  • 50ml Hendrick’s Gin
  • 12.5ml pressed apple juice
  • 15ml freshly squeezed lime juice
