So when we were at the Godet Cognac tasting recently we instantly fell in love with the Antarctica Icy White cocktails they were serving and have since added the Antartica to our favourites list. We enjoyed the cocktails so much we figured it would only be fair to share that deliciousness with you guys by giving away a bottle to one lucky subscriber!
The cognac used for Antarctica is aged in 100 years old barrels, preserving the fresh & floral aromas of the cognac. It is well-balanced with deliciously fruity and spice notes and is best served chilled. On the nose you will get floral, hints of caramel sweetness, chamomile, a hint of juniper and some dried apricot. While on the palate you will get a delicious sweetness, dried fruits, a little chamomile again, sultana and orange blossom. This cognac is bound to be that unique surprise element to a lot of cocktails this summer. 
To stand a chance to win a bottle of this unique cognac all you have to do is share your own unique cocktail recipe using the Antarctica Icy White in the comments section below. 
Here is our favourite Antarctica Cocktail Recipe for some inspiration:
