What are we doing for happy hour this week? We’re going to try your new gin and tonics? I don’t know what can be so special about a gin and tonic. You plan to make purple gin with your color changing gin infusion kit? Mixing science with alcohol sounds like my kind of night! I’ve always wanted to know how to make purple gin.
Purple gin is created by infusing naturally occurring purple color from a food safe plant. Pea flowers are the most commonly used source. Simply soak the flowers in the gin for about a day, strain them out, and you’ll have purple colored gin.
Learn how to make purple gin with the help of the color changing gin infusion kit!
You can make color changing gin with patience and a couple ingredients, which you’ll find in this color changing gin infusion kit. First, you’ll need a bottle of gin, though vodka and tequila (or any clear unflavored alcohol) work as well. Sorry, alcohol isn’t included in the kit.
Once you have the gin in hand, open your kit up to find the remaining ingredients. You’ll want to grab the blue pea flowers from within. These are what enable you to make color changing gin. Simply add the pea flowers to your desired bottle of gin. You can use the original gin bottle, or divide a larger bottle into smaller batches with the help of some glass bottles. There are enough flowers to color up to five 700mL bottles, but you don’t need to do it all at once.
Let the flowers soak in the gin for 12-24 hours, until it turns a beautiful blue and purple color. Then, use the included filter bags or a fine mesh strainer to remove the flowers. From this point, all you need to do is add tonic water to see the reaction! Upon adding tonic water to the color changing gin, it will turn a pretty shade of pink. If you want to try a test sample out before your guests arrive, a pipette is included for just that purpose.
A color changing gin infusion kit is perfect for anyone who loves to entertain. It also makes an ideal hostess gift for your friends and family. Anyone who enjoys cocktails and science will be mesmerized by color changing gin!
