How To Make A Perfect Gin & Tonic

Perhaps our favourite way to enjoy gin is in a Gin and Tonic. A typical recipe is three parts tonic to one part gin, which means even if you use the best gin in the world, a cut-rate tonic will make a sub-par drink. That’s why we started carrying some special tonic waters; Capi and StrangeLove.

Ingredients:

• 60mL Gin
• Tonic to fill
• Ice

Garnish options:

• Citrus slice (lime, orange, grapefruit),
• Herbs (rosemary, lemon thyme, basil, lavender)
• Fruit (blueberries, strawberries, apples, cucumber, chili peppers)
• Spices (cinnamon stick, star anise, peppercorns)

Steps:

1. Fill a highball or collins glass with ice
2. Pour the gin, then the tonic into the ice
3. Stir well with a long spoon
4. Top with a garnish that complements the flavours and aromas of your chosen gin
5. Enjoy!
