Gin and Tonic

Gin and Tonic is a captivating cocktail, popular as an aperitif. Made with gin and tonic, it is served in a classic tall glass, often garnished with slices of lemon or lime.

• Use the cleanest and highest quality gin for the best flavor.
• Chill the glass well before preparing the cocktail to keep the drink cold longer.
• Use freshly picked and juicy lemons for garnish to add a fresh aroma.
• Stir gently to avoid losing the carbonation from the tonic.
• If possible, use large ice cubes that melt more slowly and do not dilute the drink.

• Add a few slices of cucumber for a refreshing taste and aroma.
• Instead of lemon slices, use orange or grapefruit for a more exotic flavor.
• For a more intense aroma, add a sprig of rosemary to the drink.
• Add a small amount of elderflower syrup to give a slightly sweet finish.

• Gin was created in the Netherlands in the 17th century and was originally used in medicine.
• The main ingredient in tonic is quinine, which was used to treat malaria.
• Gin can have various flavor profiles depending on the botanicals used in distillation—most commonly, it has a juniper aroma.
• Lemon/Lime, used in cocktails, not only provides freshness but also adds vitamin C to your drink.
