This one surprised me in a very good way. It's a rather unique combination of pea and cherry flavours with lemon, elderflower and the botanicals of gin supporting. It sounds adventurous but works wonders. It would be difficult to list the ingredients on a blind tasting.

Pea and elderflower is an inspired pairing: floral and vegetal in perfect equilibrium. I chopped the sugar snap peas, muddled in a flask with a non-assertive gin (Bombay Sapphire), left for a few hours. Very unusual, and delicious.

I guess mangetout could be an ok substitute for sugar snap peas, but they’re not the same thing. Sugar snap peas are sweeter, fresher tasting, and have more of a peas flavour.
