Review:
Borrowing its name from both BA High Life magazine and the highball glass it is served in, this refreshing long drink combines the botanical complexity of gin with honeyed elderflower liqueur balanced by white wine acidity.
History:
Created 30th May 2014 by yours truly at the Cabinet Room in London, England for British Airways' BA High Life magazine.
