Notes
Serving suggestion:
Enjoy as is, or with a slice of freshly baked bread.
Note:
We used 2 tsp of GiNiT Chilli, but this might be a bit spicy for some people. The heat of the chilli continues to intensify the longer the soup is left to rest.
GiNiT Chilli adding heat to the Gin & Tonic flavour profile, this spice works anywhere you would like to add some zing. The level of burn depends on how much you add to your dish.
If you haven’t indulged in buying yourself a bottle of GiNiT Chilli yet, you can always find one in our shop…
