How to make the perfect gin & tonic?
How do you make a gin & tonic as quickly and easily as possible? There are many recipes and garnishes you can use, so let's see how you can prepare the best gin & tonic for your ideal aperitif!
1.
Fill a balloon or longdrink glass with ice. Preferably use the largest ice cubes possible, as they melt much slower. The more ice, the better: "ice, ice baby"!
2.
Use a jigger to measure 5cl of gin. Make sure you use 1/4 gin and 3/4 tonic, as that's the ideal ratio.
3.
Finally, finish your gin & tonic with a garnish. Which garnish? For a gin & tonic with The Ghentist, it's best to finish with 2 slices of Granny Smith apple, as this accentuates the apple touch of the gin. You can also enhance the lavender and violet flavour by finishing with a small flower.
4.
Stir the gin & tonic with a bar spoon to get the ideal gin & tonic mix! All that's left now is to enjoy it, cheers!
