Welsh Witch “As featured on TV”

Our Lammas Vodka was on ITV’s Alan Titchmarsh’s Love Your Weekend!!

We’re absolutely over the moon to finally be able to shout about appearing on Alan Titchmarsh’s Love Your Weekend.

To have our Vodka handpicked to be featured by Andy Clarke in his autumn drink’s slot as part of the celebration of harvest has blown us away. As a food/drink writer, broadcaster, event host, TV producer/director, Andy’s is one of the UKs most exciting and vibrant voices in the food and drink industry.

We can’t thank Andy, Alan and the team enough for giving us the opportunity to be featured on such a popular TV show with our favourite gardener. It means so much to us to be recognised and share the infectious Welsh Witch magic and passion with the nation.

Our new Vodka brings something a little different to our range whilst remaining true to our magical roots in nature as it celebrates harvest’s first gain. Not only that but Welsh Witch Lammas Vodka uses Welsh mountain spring water to create this magical potion. This distilled spirit is filtered through crystals to bring a little more energy and magic. It allows us to not only showcase our drinks but the rich pride and beauty of North Wales.

“We’re passionate about constantly creating new drinks that people love and all of our spirits have their own unique processes to make them stand out from the crowd. Being hand crafted in small batches in our North Wales distillery means we can ensure care and attention to every detail and we can remain true to our values.

Seeing our creations on TV gives me the most magical feeling inside and I couldn’t be more proud of my business, my products and all of those that have supported me along the way”

Jade Garston, Welsh Witch

 

Describing Andy Clarke’s Pear Harvest Spritz Alan says

“This isn’t totally Sweet either – it’s really tasty!”

Alan Titchmarsh, Gardener, Broadcaster, Poet and Novelist

 

“Made to celebrate the first harvets of grains. This vodka is very very smooth, it’s actually using Welsh water from the mountains near Wrexham and it’s actuall poured through Reiki crystals as well so its actually got a very soft texture which stops it from being so harsh, some vodka drinks can be ‘woah’ but this isn’t.” 

Andy Clarke, Food/Drink Writer, Broadcaster, Event host, TV producer/Director

5 Vodka Cocktails for summer and beyond

If you are planning that perfect summer BBQ, party or want to wow dinner party guests we think our new Lammas vodka will do the trick.

Our premium vodka stands proud as a crowd-pleasing spirit; an unfussy accompaniment to any mixer of your choice to create a luxurious taste journey.

The quintessential and classic flavour of our triple distilled vodka, paired with the unique knowledge of Welsh traditions and folklore, is an enchanting spirit and drinks shelf staple for any cocktail making enthusiast.

Vodka is one of the world’s most popular spirits because of its neutral flavour, crystal clear colour, and versatility in cocktail recipes.
Check out some delicious crowd-pleasing vodka cocktails to try out below:

Wrexham Mule

With our now famous town on the map thanks to the Hollywood fairy tale surrounding our football club we couldn’t miss out on the opportunity to create a local twist on a classic vodka cocktail.

Wrexham is also famed for the quality of its underground water reserves, which gave rise to its previous dominance as a major brewing centre. Both Welsh Water and the first gain celebrated by Lammas are at the heart of our new Vodka.

Ingredients you’ll need:

To garnish

  • Lime
  • Splash of grenadine

Pour the vodka into a metal mug, julep tin or tumbler. Load up ¾ full of crushed ice, then fill to the top with the ginger ale and stir gently to combine. Add a few dashes of ginger bitters.

Serve with splash of grenadine to add the Wrexham fiery red colour and finish with a squeeze of lime and the wedges on top.

Summer Breeze

On a beautiful summer day, you can’t beat a light, chilled, refreshing cocktail, and they don’t come more refreshing than a summer’s breeze.

Ingredients you’ll need:

To garnish

  • Garnish with a lime wedge

Take a chilled glass (coupe glass preferable). Shake and strain the ingredients with lots of ice cubes and then pour. Finish with orange zest shavings.

———-

Cosmopolitan

You can’t talk about vodka cocktails without including the very classic Cosmopolitan, with its famous sweet with just a touch of tang taste.

What’s more how else would you describe sipping cocktail at a summer get-together other than ‘how very Cosmopolitan!’

Ingredients you’ll need:

  • 45ml Welsh Witch Lammas Vodka
  • 20ml Cointreau
  • Splash of cranberry Juice
  • Squeeze of lime

To garnish

  • Garnish with a lemon twist

 

 

 

Combine all the liquids in cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend and chill. Strain into chilled martini or nick & nora glass. Garnish with lemon twist.

———-

Welsh Vodka Fizz

This refreshing cocktail is a trifecta of sweet, minty, and tangy. This is a great cocktail to enjoy on a hot summer day by the pool.

Ingredients you’ll need:

To garnish

  • Garnish with a lemon slice

Pour vodka, lemon juice, and mint simple syrup into a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake. Strain into a glass filled with ice and top up the glass with club soda. Garnish with a slice of lemon.

———-

Espresso Martini

And finally……we couldn’t leave out the Espresso Martini as one of the great vodka cocktails to come out of the 1980s. Invented by famed bartender Dick Bradsell, some say he first shook one up for super model Kate Moss.

Ingredients you’ll need:

To garnish

  • 3 Whole Coffee Beans

 

 

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes. Add Welsh Witch Vodka Lammas Vodka, Kahlúa, and Espresso. Shake well to get the foam on top and strain it into a cocktail or martini glass. Garnish by placing three coffee beans on top.
