Which is why local distillery <a href=\"http:\/\/pienaarandson.co.za\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pienaar &amp; Son<\/a> decided to get creative with how they produced their gin. Inspired by Day Zero, the brand has announced that both of its classic gins have been upgraded to include a Drought Edition version.<\/p>\n<p>Before being bottled, gin usually starts off at a strength of about 80 percent alcohol, 200 litres of water is then added to dilute it to 43 percent. However, Pienaar &amp; Son noticed that most of their customers were pouring a double G&amp;T prompting them to skip the step of adding water and bottle the original gin with 80 percent alcohol \u2013 a double shot in every tot.<\/p>\n<p>According to Pienaar &amp; Son, there is no drastic flavour variation with the drought-friendly gin when it is enjoyed in a typical gin and tonic, meaning that a single shot will taste the same as a double shot of 43 percent gin.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Pienaar &amp; Son Drought Edition gins are now available at any reputable liquor store or online &#8211; find it at the best price <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricecheck.co.za\/search?search=gin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<h5>Want more food news?
