In a Heartbeat

In a Heartbeat

The In a Heartbeat cocktail is a stunning, fruit-forward serve that’s bursting with fresh berries, soft florals, and just the right touch of citrus. With muddled strawberries and raspberries forming the base, this drink is elevated by the crispness of gin or vodka, the natural sweetness of cloudy apple juice, and the delicate sparkle of Double Dutch Elderflower Tonic Water. It’s a cocktail that’s made for sharing — romantic, refreshing, and effortlessly impressive.

Why We Love the In a Heartbeat Cocktail

This cocktail combines visual appeal with vibrant flavour. The muddled berries provide colour and natural sweetness, while lime juice gives a bright, zesty edge. Cloudy apple juice softens the tartness, and the elderflower tonic adds floral bubbles that tie everything together. Served over ice in a Collins glass and finished with a heart-shaped strawberry and mint sprig, it’s a drink that’s perfect for date nights, brunches, or anytime you want to serve a little love in a glass.

The In a Heartbeat is more than just a cocktail — it’s an experience. From the first sip, you’ll taste the freshness of the fruit, the crispness of the spirit, and the subtle sweetness of elderflower, all working in harmony.
