A fruity, refreshing gin cocktail with a playful twist

The Experience:
The first sip feels like sunshine breaking through rain clouds—bright orange sweetness, mango richness, and that cheeky pepper note keeping things exciting. Gin gives it a sophisticated backbone, while tonic and Sprite bring the fizz that feels like raindrops dancing on your tongue.
It’s tropical, refreshing, and mood-lifting—just like standing in a summer rainstorm, but with a glass in hand. 🌧️🍹
