Celebrate Mother’s Day with Kerr’s Gin

Written by
Kirsten Blackburn
Date Published:
06 March 2023

Serve up the perfect cocktail this Mother’s Day with Kerr’s Borders Gin. Celebrate Mum in style with our Queen B and Motherhood recipes at home.

Every drop of Kerr’s Gin is made from Scottish Borders barley, with every grain grown within 35 miles of the distillery. Our long-term partnerships with local farmers give us complete control over the creation of our spirit, from barley to bottle. Kerr’s is the only Scottish Gin made with malted barley spirit in a Carterhead Still, and we believe you can taste the difference.

Kerr’s bright juniper and citrus notes on the nose compliment ginger and herbal flavours, and the hint of liquorice in the gin’s finish pairs well with sharper fruits like citrus, grapfruit and raspberry.
