Samuel Gelston’s Spiced Star
Award-winning Belfast-based mixologist Emily Doherty' inspiration behind this drink is the iconic golden star on the Gelston’s bottle. And with the festive season fast approaching, she created this drink to enjoy on a cold winter day. She explains: “Samuel Gelston's Irish Cream Liqueur is a warm hug in a glass, it’s smooth, creamy and sweet, and perfect with hot coffee and spiced brown sugar syrup.”
