Our Vanilla Fig Gin Fizz is a delicious gin cocktail recipe that perfectly marries the sumptuous flavour of fresh ripe fig with tropical vanilla and our premium award-winning Cape Dry gin. Beautiful to look at; beautiful to taste

This cocktail is an explosion of flavours in the mouth.  The vanilla flavours lift and enhance the ripe fig aromas and taste.  Go light on the soda water for a more fruity cocktail.
