With the aroma of raspberry, a limited-edition pink gin has been created by Canberra's Underground Spirits as part of Floriade: Reimagined, which officially kicks off on Saturday.
Underground Spirits CEO Claudia Roughley said they had created a gin that evokes "the vibrant colours and floral aromas that will erupt across Canberra during Floriade: Reimagined".
"Everyone could use a little reimagining in 2020, it's really been a year like no other. At Underground Spirits we've done a little reimagining of our own to bring you our blossoming pink gin," Ms Roughley.
The flavour also has hints of native finger lime and coriander.
Events ACT's acting executive branch manager Ross Triffitt said Floriade this year not only marked flowers blooming to life after their winter hibernation, but also celebrated the community spirit and resilience that Canberrans have displayed during recent times.
Underground Spirits was one of the sponsors of Floriade: Reimagined.
"We're proud to support local producers and collaborate to create such an inspired and delicious product which celebrates spring, a great time of year in Canberra. Who doesn't love the combination of fragrant flowers and aromatic gin?" Mr Triffitt said.
Underground Spirits' reimaGINed limited edition pink gin for sale from the Floriade: Reimagined online marketplace from September 12 to October 11 at floriadeaustralia.com. It is also available at select Canberra retailers.
