Gin Drink

Make a gin martini garnished with a cucumber and add a splash of ginger ale for a little sweet kick

Really refreshing

I like to make those with hendrick's gin

Gin, ice, splash of olive juice

Gin, ice, splash of lime juice

Fresh grapefruit juice, gin, salt, shake.

My favorite gin drink: ice, 2 parts gin, 1 part fresh lemon juice, splash St. Germain, mint leaf

Bombay
Touch of Vermouth
1/2 tbls Olive juice
Three olives

Stirred with ice and strained.

The anti-bond

Martini - 4 ounces gin, 1 ounce dry vermouth; stir with ice for ~30 seconds, strain into a chilled cocktail glass

Bronx - 2 ounces gin, 1 ounce orange juice, 1/2 ounce sweet vermouth, 1/2 ounce dry vermouth; shake with ice, strain to chilled cocktail glass

Tom Collins - add 2 ounces gin, 1/2 ounce lemon juice, 1 teaspoon sugar to a Collins glass (the tall, skinny kind) with ice; fill with club soda, stir until sugar is dissolved

ETA: Someone mentioned a Ramos gin fizz. IMO, those are only worthwhile if made by someone else, because they require so much work. When made properly, though, it's one of my favorite cocktails.

GG, I didn't expect to se you here...

Have any of you gin fans tried Jack Rudy Small Batch Tonic?

I saw it at Specs recently and I'm thinking about getting a bottle. Wondering how unique it is and whether it's worth it.

The fact that it's a quanine concentrate makes me wonder about it's toxicity

Apparently you only use a half ounce

That sounds good.


My vote is for Ramos gin fizz and an aviator.
