The Gin & Tonic. A perfect pairing since the 1700’s, and which is still consumed by the masses today. Not much beats an ice cold G&T on a hot summers’ night...or day!
It’s explosion can be seen by the number of craft gins that have been popping into the scene in the last few years, as well as gin clubs and gin subscription services. It’s fair to say that Gin is here to stay.
Although the classic Gin & Tonic needs no alterations, Gin itself can help make some flavoursome cocktails, which go wonderfully with these warm summer nights.
