Using fig infused gin!

A few weeks ago, I got the idea to infuse gin with figs. While I was at it, I infused some rum, too! The only problem is, what should I do with this boozy goodness?
 Gin on the left, rum on the right.

Luckily for me, the coworker who gave me the idea mentioned in passing that he serves the fig-infused gin with prosecco and thyme. I think he must have gotten the idea from an article online, available at this link

Stay tuned for a report!

  1. Just had a fig infused Gin cocktail at Chambar in Vancouver. Called the blue fig, it consisted of a straight up martini glass of infused gin served with a small bowl of crumbled stilton cheese. Lovely, just don't be tempted to put the cheese in the cocktail, just simply have taste of cheese, then a sip of gin.
