Ant-flavoured gin: why ants are adding to the spirit

Radio 4 in Four

Available for over a year

In parts of the world - and in the jungle on TV - eating insects is part of your diet - but what about drinking them? We're serving up ant-flavoured gin! They're foraged in Kent and the acid the ant secretes is used as flavouring. Clare Worden has been finding out more at Cambridge Distillers. First broadcast on Farming Today, 25 November 2016.
