VOICE OVER: Merlin Griffiths
Based on a Prohibition-era classic cocktail called the Gin & Sin (when drinking gin was considered a sin), the Sapphire and Sin is a modern update on this refreshing drink. With gin, lemon and orange juices, as well as a hint of ginger, the Sapphire and Sin is a great summer drink. The fresh citrus flavors of the lemon and orange give this cocktail a fresh taste, while the ginger offsets the natural ingredients of the gin. Be sure to try this flavorful beverage at your next cocktail party! In this video, Bombay Sapphire brand ambassador Merlin Griffiths teaches http://www.WatchMojo.com how to make the Sapphire & Sin cocktail.
