Natural Eating Guru Stacie Stewart Creates Natural Tonics With Caorunn Gin. Hello friends. Happy Monday.
Natural Eating Guru Stacie Stewart Creates Natural Tonics With Caorunn Gin:
The premium and contemporary Scottish gin, Caorunn (pronounced ‘ka-roon’) has enlisted the expertise of ‘natural eating guru’ Stacie Stewart to create four tonics that balance perfectly with the refreshing taste of Caorunn Gin.
The refreshingly tonics have been inspired by Caorunn’s locally-foraged Celtic botanicals.
Harnessing Scotland’s unique natural resources, Gin master Simon Buley hand-picks the botanicals from the hills surrounding the breath-taking setting of Balmenach Distillery in the Cairngorms National Park.
Each of the four tonics have been designed exclusively by Stacie who has a passion for using raw, natural ingredients.
Natural Eating Guru Stacie Stewart Creates Natural Tonics With Caorunn Gin:
The home-made ingredients are bursting with health benefits without compromising on taste.
Stacie – who presents Channel 4 programme’s What’s Cooking and How to Lose Weight Well as well as being the founder of Eat Naked, the clean eating deli in her hometown of Brighton – developed the refreshing selection of natural tonics for gin fans who want natural goodness, vitamins and vitality from their drink.
Caorunn is refreshingly different, it is dry and crisp while still being fresh and floral on the nose and is the perfect gin to mix with fresh, home-made ingredients.
The collection includes the immune system boosting The Red Apple Rose, cleansing The Fresh Mint Zing, digestion-enhancing The Zest and Honey and fat burning The Citrus Cooler.
The benefits of the natural ingredients are:
The Red Apple Rose:
Firstly, red apples contain high amounts of antioxidants and vitamin C which are key elements of a robust immune system.
The Fresh Mint Zing:
Secondly, mint is known for its ability to aid digestion, relax the body and helps cleanse the body.
The Zest and Honey:
Thirdly, Manuka Honey is a rich source of amino acids, vitamins and minerals including B6, calcium and iron.
It aids digestion and is good for clear skin and strong nails.
The Citrus Cooler:
Last but not least, not only are citrus fruits high in vitamin C, they are rich in flavonoids and antioxidants that can neutralise free radicals and may improve blood flow. As well as boosting your metabolism to help aid weight loss.
Natural Eating Guru Stacie Stewart Creates Natural Tonics With Caorunn Gin: Stacie Stewart Says:
The way in which Caorunn is mastered to perfection with depth in every detail, hand-crafted and infused with five foraged natural botanicals from the Speyside Hills (including dandelion, heather, coul blush apple, bog myrtle and rowan berry) really inspired me. As there is already so much goodness in these organic ingredients.
The name Caorunn even comes from the Gaelic name for Rowan Berry, which grows wild within a five-minute walk from the distillery.”
Stacie continues: “There are so many benefits of using natural ingredients, most importantly, the incredible taste. I always try to encourage people to eat natural ingredients where possible.”
Caorunn Gin Master Simon Buley says: “There is no better feeling than savouring drinks made with hand-picked ingredients.
Not only do they taste better, but it also connects you to the natural world and the wonders it offers.
Every sip of Caorunn gin provides you with a truly aromatic taste adventure through the rugged Scottish Highlands, yet delivers a clean and versatile taste which is perfect to mix into any traditional or contemporary cocktail.
The tonics that Stacie has developed are delightful, the balanced flavour of Caorunn is enhanced by the natural, cold pressed ingredients.”
