At Two Birds we love a grazing platter. Brimming with delicious produce and oh-so-instagrammable, they are perfect for small gatherings with friends or for easy at-home suppers when you can’t be bothered to cook. What’s more this rainbow of tasty cheeses, antipasti, crudites, dips and fresh fruit is a match for our own colourful and fabulous flavoured spirits.

If you’re new to platters, why not try this recipe from instagrammer @GirlCooksBoyBakes who we teamed up with to create a summer platter with a serve of our Pink Grapefuit & Pomegranate Gin. It’s really easy to throw together and would equally suit a serve of our Watermelon Gin.
