June 26, 2026 — For imbibers looking to celebrate Independence Day with distinctly American spirits, Waterloo Gin offers a trio of premium American-style gins that put a modern U.S. twist on a traditionally European category. Crafted in the Texas Hill Country, Waterloo Gin offers a more approachable expression of gin than traditional London Dry styles, capturing the flavors and character of its home region in every bottle. Distilled with nine native Texas botanicals, including pecan, grapefruit, lavender, juniper, orris root, coriander, anise, ginger, and licorice root, each expression is vapor-infused to preserve the truest essence of every ingredient and proofed with limestone-filtered spring water for a smooth finish. The result is a collection of modern gins, each bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV), that offer a versatile, contemporary profile designed to shine in classic cocktails and creative serves while delivering a true taste of place. From summer entertaining and backyard barbecues to Fourth of July celebrations, Waterloo Gin expressions bring a distinctive Texas twist to every cocktail.
Waterloo No. 9 Gin reimagines classic gin with a bright, citrus-forward profile featuring grapefruit, lavender, and pecan among its nine botanicals, making it an ideal base for refreshing Gin & Tonics, Martinis, and spritzes.
Waterloo Barrel-Aged Gin brings together the worlds of gin and American whiskey, aging the spirit in medium-char, first-use American oak barrels for a minimum of two years (the same way bourbon is aged) to develop notes of vanilla, caramel, and oak alongside its botanical character. This expression is perfect for elevated Old Fashioneds and Negronis.
For hosts looking to add color to the celebration, Waterloo Prickly Pear & Rose Gin combines prickly pear, rose petals, and hibiscus, layered with the signature nine native Texas botanicals for a vibrant, naturally pink gin with floral and fruit-forward notes that shine in festive summer cocktails.
Available for purchase online and at select retailers nationwide, Waterloo Gin’s lineup offers a uniquely American way to raise a glass this Fourth of July. Visit WaterlooGin.com to find the nearest retailer, shop online, and explore cocktail recipes.
