Feeling Fruity For Summer

With the sun finally shining on the UK, spontaneous summer soirées are on the horizon and Echo Falls has captured the flavours of summer in a range of fruit infusions, Echo Falls' Fruit Fusions, providing the perfect tipple for the season. Partnering with one of London's expert mixologists, Clotilde Lataille, Echo Falls has created three delicious Fruit Fusion cocktail recipes to ensure there is a flavour to suit every sunshine occasion from picnics to garden parties.

The range includes three distinct and varied flavours, each displaying unique aromas and tasting notes: White Peach and Mango, a refreshing and tropical white with a crisp, smooth finish; Summer Berries, a sweet fruity rosé with aromas of raspberry and strawberry; and Raspberry and Cassis, a refreshing yet rich fruity red with red berry and juicy plum flavours.
