# Transformative Gin Spirits Crafter’s 'Aromatic Flower Gin' Turns Pink with the Addition of Tonic By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2017-10-13 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flower-gin References: [thespiritsbusiness](https://www.thespiritsbusiness.com/2017/10/estonian-gin-changes-colour-when-tonic-is-added/) & [facebook](https://www.facebook.com/craftersgin/) Crafter’s Aromatic Flower Gin was recently unveiled at the TFWA World Exhibition & Conference in Cannes, introducing the world to a unique blend of botanicals that has a natural copper color—until it is mixed with tonic. The Aromatic Flower Gin is made with 12 botanicals including everything from [rose petals and elderflower](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/willoe-gin) to meadowsweet and chamomile. Rosehip blooms are also a key [botanical in the gin spirit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hendricks-sunspell-gin), causing it to undergo a transformation from a copper-colored drink to a pin one when tonic is added. This can be attributed to the natural pigment found in rosehip blooms, which reacts in response to the change of acidity when a high-quality tonic is added. Like rosehips, butterfly pea flowers are also being used to create dramatic [color-changing drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/empress-1908-00-indigo) that morph from blue to pink when the pH levels are disrupted. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.8/10 - Popularity: 98% | Activity: 97% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Color-changing Drinks:** The use of botanicals with natural pigments that react to changes in acidity to create color-changing drinks. - **Unique Blends of Botanicals:** The creation of gin spirits with unusual combinations of botanicals such as rose petals, elderflower, meadowsweet, and chamomile. - **Disruptive Innovation in Gin-making:** The introduction of transformative gins that offer a unique drinking experience by changing color when mixed with tonic. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Alcoholic Beverages:** The alcoholic beverages industry can explore the creation of color-changing spirits using natural botanical pigments. - **Gin Spirit Manufacturing:** Gin spirit manufacturers can experiment with unique blends of botanicals to create innovative and transformative gin products. - **Mixology and Bartending:** Mixologists and bartenders can leverage color-changing gins to create visually stunning and Instagrammable cocktails for customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Color-Changing Gin Gift Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gin-gift-set.md) - [Liquid Cocktail Garnishes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liquid-cocktail-garnishes.md) - [Turkish-Inspired Pink Gins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arbory-afloat.md) - [Botanical Violet-Hued Vodkas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butterfly-lavender-vodka.md) - [Luxurious Lilac-Colored Gins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gin-lane-1751-violet-gin.md) - [All-Natural Color-Changing Spirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unicorn-distillery.md) - [Tropical British Gin Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gordons-tropical-passionfruit-gin.md) - [Fresh Strawberry Gins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/punk-gin.md) - [Fruity Eye-Catching Gins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beefeater-rhubarb-cranberry.md)
