Gin, tonic, ice cold, refreshingly tart and bubbly, with a refreshing lime taste
Who doesn’t love a gin and tonic on a hot summers day!! Hey some of my family call it bacon and eggs and you know what, I agree 🙂
There isn’t much to a great gin and tonic but it does start with great products. Use the best gin you can afford, I prefer a London dry gin but go ahead and use any type of gin you prefer. For the tonic I tend to use the good old Schweppes brand but I also really like Nordic Mist.
In my family we tend to be split by lime and cucumber when it comes to garnishes. My wife loves cucumber in hers and I can’t seem to get the taste for it. I am a lime person. I also like a few drops of Angostura bitters in my gin, it’s a great addition if you can find it.
Here is a simple recipe. Feel free to play around with different ingredients. I have seen watermelon and strawberry infused gins and those look really yummy.
