Just when we thought our gin cocky-t's couldn't get any spicier, Auckland bar 'The Brit' has added a boozy twist to one of our fave Kiwi bickies - a gin-ger kiss cocktail!

In celebration of World Gin Day - June 10th - a mix of white cacao liqueur, cream, spice and Lighthouse gin will be expertly shaken to create the perfect blend of sugar, spice and everything nice.

Excuse me, while I clean up the drool off of my screen.

If you happen to find yourself keen for a kiss in Britomart between the 25th May - June 30th, you're going to want to stop in.

That means you should probably book now to avoid the fear of missing out.

If you're not in Auckland on the day, don't worry about catching that FOMO, I spoke to Lighthouse's legendary head distiller Rachel Hall and nabbed the instructions for you to make the spicy cocky-t at your place!
