We’re turning the clocks back on Sunday, but that doesn’t mean turning your back on gin until next summer. With the herbal nature of many gins, there are many  gin cocktails that taste just right in the darker, colder months.

Here are some gin cocktails we turn to in the fall. They work equally well with Copperworks Gin or an aged gin like Copperworks New Barrel Gin or Malt Barrel Gin.

With all these recipes, stir with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.
