Notes
Variations
Flavoredgin - this gin and tonic recipe will work for all types of flavored gin from fruit flavored gins to gins infused with extra herbs and botanicals.
Flavored tonic - use elderflower tonic water for a floral G&T, or grapefruit tonic for something a bit fruity.
Add bitters - a few splashes of your favorite cocktail bitters would be delicious here.
Garnishes - I find cucumber, citrus, and sprigs of fresh herbs such as thyme and rosemary always elevate a drink, but feel free to experiment!
