Long Drink is a gin based ready to drink beverage, that’s traditionally paired with grapefruit soda. Long Drink originates from Finland being one of the most popular alcoholic drinks in the country since 1952.
Fast forward to present day, in Finland you can find them in every supermarket, bar tap and also great small breweries making their versions to accompany big brands. We wanted to join the game in the UK to make our craft versions.

No, the drink is not bitter at all. It is very citrus forward with sweet and refreshing notes. It’s made using white grapefruit rather than pink, so the colour is grey (just like November weather in Finland - and pretty much in the UK most of the time right?).

Although a small independent business we have been in the drinks industry for over 25 years!
We make sure we are using the best suppliers in the market to provide our customers with the most delicious end-product.
We are doing small runs at a time which makes the product that reaches our customers the freshest it can be.
We also endorse each partner, venue and who we work with. Sharing is caring is our motto as we mainly work with independent businesses.
Most importantly we don’t cut any corners! That’s why our product is not the cheapest but that way we ensure top quality! Real gin, real fruits!

Well you just answered your own question. We are not a supermarket product. We are proud to be independent, small, craft business. Small breweries are miles apart from huge supermarket brands in every way! Comparing us to a supermarket brand is like saying that some sort of a colourful ball is a real cocktail :D
You get what we’re saying. Supporting a small business actually makes a difference and we really appreciate every customer! Big corporates already have everyone. Small breweries don’t - we need you :)

We aim to deliver your order between 3-4 working days. Usually, we dispatch the next day or even the same day, but the delivery onwards is up to our delivery partners so that’s why we estimate 3-4 working days.
Currently we are only offering UK mainland delivery but we are hoping to change that in the upcoming months.
-
As our product is food related, unfortunately we can’t accept returns after shipping your order.
However, if there was an issue with your order, please email us at hello@houselongdrink.com and we’ll be happy to assist you.

Hell yes! It’s the short answer. Our expertise is in creating new flavours! We started with the traditional gin & grapefruit, launched refreshing gin & raspberry-lemon in summer 2026 (made from real raspberries for ultimate freshness!) and we have more to come!
-
We aim to be a zero-waste company. For our flavours, we use real fruits and berries. We don’t waste anything as we make jams, lemonades and even limoncello from leftovers. No wastage! Currently we gift the products to friends and family, but when we have more jams, lemonades and more – who knows if these will be added to our shop for everyone to enjoy!
-
We plan to start writing newsletters to those who have subscribed to email updates (so far we’ve done zero so you will never get spammed) but as we are a small company, we tend to share all our updates on social media! You can follow us on Instagram @houselongdrink and Facebook too. We are millennials so haven’t aced TikTok yet (sorry youngsters!)
Instagram is the best way to see what we’re up to at the moment.

Right here from our shop!
Currently outside London, the easiest is our online shop. We deliver to addresses in mainland UK.
We update on our socials which bars, pubs, and bottle shops have us stocked so most updates are there. You can always DM us to ask anything. We also update discount codes on our socials time to time so it’s worth following us. If you’re not on social media, you can always email us.
We are also aiming to be listed with some carefully selected wholesalers, which means hopefully more reach to the rest of the UK for bars, bottleshops and more.
-
