Steps:

  • Place the ice cubes in a tall, narrow, chilled glass (the cubes should come near the top.) Add the gin, then the tonic water, then the lime juice, stirring well. Garnish with lime wedge, and serve immediately.
  • Note: To make the ice cubes, simply fill an empty ice cube tray with tonic water, and let the cubes freeze. It takes just a few hours. Covered well, the cubes will remain fresh-tasting in the freezer for at least a few weeks.

4 to 5 tonic water Ice Cubes (recommended: Schweppes) (see Note)
3 ounces gin (recommended: Plymouth Gin)
4 ounces tonic water (recommended: Schweppes)
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
Lime wedge for garnish

THE BEST GIN AND TONIC

The best gin and tonic is all in the technique, because the most important ingredient in a G&T is not really the gin, or even the tonic. It's carbonation.

Steps:

  • Chill the glass. You may want to fill it with ice, then empty it and refill, as some bartenders do with a martini glass.
  • Fill the glass with whole ice cubes. If you wish, take a wedge of lime and moisten the rim the glass with it.
  • Pour the gin over the ice, which should be cold enough that it crackles when the liquor hits it.
  • Fill glass almost to the top with tonic.
  • Squeeze one wedge of lime into the glass. Drop the squeezed lime into the drink as a garnish if you like; it's not necessary, but can add a bit of extra flavor. (If you do, notes Dale DeGroff, make sure the peel has been washed.) Serve.

  • The perfect glass. An old tumbler from the back of your cupboard simply won’t do, we’re told: ‘Contrary to the traditional highball glass, one with a good opening – like a copa, tumbler or even a red wine glass – can really enhance the nose and allow you to take in all the fragrant botanicals in the gin,’ says Simon Gamble, Product Creative Director of Two Birds Spirits.
  • The right amount of ice. ‘ It’s crucial to get your glass as cold as possible,’ says James Chase, CEO and Founder of Chase Distillery. ‘ Add as much ice as you possibly can (and make sure it’s clear).
  • Get the measurements right. ‘ It all depends on your day, and whether you've had a bad one or not!’ James laughs. ‘ But for taste, I always go with a quarter of gin and three-quarters tonic.’
  • Pick your tonic wisely. ‘ As the tonic amounts to three-quarters of the G&T, it should ideally be top-notch quality,’ Simon advises. ‘ I’d also stick to “unflavoured” tonic waters, as the garnishes on a G&T really enhance the flavour.’
  • Get adventurous with the garnishes. ‘ A G&T is personal,’ Simon tells us. ‘ If you want something refreshing and citrus-y, you can’t go wrong with a classic lime wedge.
  • It's all about the order. ' The order in which you mix your G&T is crucial,’ says James. ‘ Get the glass as cold as possible first, then add the ice and pour out any excess water.

If you overdo the tonic, you can’t go back, so for a gin you’ve not mixed before, start with a ratio of 1:1 (e.g. 50ml of gin and 50ml of tonic). Then, gradually increase until you find the ideal ratio for your palate. For the majority of people this is 2:1 (100ml tonic water to 50ml gin) or 3:1 (150ml tonic water to 50ml gin).
