Is there a cocktail extra easy than a gin and tonic? I feel not!
The gin and tonic is a type of basic cocktails you may whip up in a pinch. And although it has simply two components, there are such a lot of methods to customise and add razzle dazzle.
The Gin
One half of this basic cocktail is the spirit. Gin is a transparent, distilled spirit made with botanicals. And whether or not you decide a dry gin or one that’s heavy on botanicals, you actually can’t go improper. However past that, there are different wats to spruce of the G in your G&T. For one, you may add a flavored gin, like Indoggo’s Strawberry Gin or Greenall’s Blueberry Gin (pictured). Should you just like the enjoyable colours however wish to follow the basic gin taste, you too can attempt Empress Gin, a small batch gin that’s heavy on the which turns the gin a good looking indigo hue. And you probably have time, you may even infuse the gin your self.
The Tonic
The tonic can be essential and it doesn’t should be boring. I do suggest a top quality tonic, like Fever Tree or Q. However when you actually wish to spice issues up, attempt a flavored tonic. I had a lemon flavored tonic not too long ago that I beloved. However yow will discover tonics flavored with elderflower, cucumber, and a lot extra.
The Garnish
Lastly, when you actually wish to take this highball to a different stage, get artistic together with your garnish. There are such a lot of methods to brighten a G&T. For one, you may add herbs. Assume rosemary, mint, or sage. You can too drop a number of peppercorns in your glass. And eventually, you may add a slice of cucumber, a lime wheel, and different fruits and veggies to make it visually attention-grabbing.
