8 Unusual Gins That Take Mother's Ruin to the Next Level

How to make gin even better? Add pineapple! Apparently, pineapple gin was famous in the '20s but lost favour over the years (when pineapple went on to be paired with rum). The brave will drink this Spit-Roasted Pineapple Gin (£29.95) neat over ice; the sweetness of the pineapple makes that possible, though it's really strong in gin flavour too, meaning you'll only want a small amount. Swap your festive Baileys for a dash of this instead; you'll be surprised how warming it is. Alternatively, it's the perfect base for cocktails, or (as recommended on the bottle) top it up with Ting or Lilt for a tropical treat.
