Could you do a video that shows how to get your kids to go to bed at 7:00 pm 😂
Hahaha!
Steven Wilson uh yeah it's called Gin and tonics 😂😂😂
spank it. I like a bit spanking. It's quite nice
give them 1 glass of Gin and Tonic each.
It will probably involve another spank haha
I’ve tried many GT’s, and I do prefer lemons over limes, it fits so much better in my experience.
I love the simplicity of this man about things sometimes made too much complicate generally for keep the rest of mortals away. Thank you!
When I saw the title, I though "Oh, another one of those where someone thinks that a classic drink needs to be updated." Thanks for proving me wrong. ;)

Nah the wanker just likes abusing children because he was picked on in school
@Bst Joker nothing whats wrong with you
@@taffyjock1
Oliver doesnt abuse children? xD
@@1337CaptainHadock when did you stop abusing kids?
Kids in bed at 7 o'clock? you're either a pro or insane xD
BolFelix Ha! Bit of both.
isnt that the regular time? at school age they should be bed at 8 a clock minimum :D
School age at bed a 8o'clock? What drugs did you take? School starts at 8am minimum... That would mean like 11 hours of sleep. Infants and babies go to bed that early, but not kids at school age.
JiiPeee i always went to bed at like 10 and now go at midnight...
School starts at 8:15AM. When do you people even have dinner? In central italy we eat at 8:30 PM

My favourite drink of all time :) So glad to see Jamie making one of his own!! Drinks Tube is SO BRILLIANT!
rafaelurfle Thanks :)
Jamie Oliver's Drinks Tube what i love to do is to rub a slice of a Granny Smith apple on the edge of the glass, its just delicious. cheers from México.
+Jamie Oliver's Drinks Tube Dude. Thank you. SOOOO good.
+Jamie Oliver's Drinks Tube How do you store Gin? in the fridge or in the freezer?
England have just bowed out of the World Cup and I reckon it's time for a lovely G&T thanks Jamie for keeping it simple
We need those simple pleasures in a world of heartbreak and pain.
I really enjoy watching Jamie do so many recipe variations.....he truly inspires one to get into the kitchen with such enthusiasm and creativity. These drink recipes look delicious!!😊
Orbs of energy Thanks Orbs. means a lot.
I agree, love it
My favourite is a G&T with lemon and a dash of angostura bitters.
I have a lot of mint in the garden, so I think I'll have to try that as well!
I was once served a G&T with grapefruit instead. It was lovely.
Lovely!
I can see that working out good!
You shoud try with passion fruit
Wow. I'm going to make your recipe into an alcoholic freeze pop. My fellow Brazilian countrymen are going to absolutely love this!
+Talita Nunes Silva What a shout!
Nice variation. I usually go for the Hendrick's Gin (60 ml) and San Pellegrino Tonic Water (120 ml) with a slice of cucumber and a twist of ground black pepper. Served in a whiskey glass :)
Thanks for sharing! Will try!
Oh it's cool
Man that was awesome! Thanks for sharing I loved it when I done.
@@buUra_dj Glad you like it 😊
Definitely a fav!
For me, the best gin and tonic is 2 oz (60 ml) Beefeater, 4-5 oz Schweppes, topped with a lemon slice. I prefer lemon to lime because (1) I work at the produce section in a supermarket, and I juice limes all day for guacamole and pico de gallo. I got so tired of the smell of juiced limes that every lime smells like Skittles now to me. (2) Limes go brown before I can use them up. Bombay Sapphire is definitely a favorite, but more of a "special occasion" gin owing to its price.
G&T with a wedge of pink grapefruit is absolutely divine 😊
We second that!
A little suggestion here, dear Oliver...instead of mixing all of the ingredients in the glass already, try using a shaker in which you add the gin, some smashed ice (just a tiny bit), about 10 ml lime juice and some mint leaves, previously smacked. Shake it up just a little bit, pour it into the glass gently, (which was filled with ice cubes to begin with), add tonic water and a leaf of mint...and you have my recipe! :)
I find this one really interesting, as well as yours!
Cheers!
Alexandru Dehelean Thanks :)
interesting haha, but i don't think you ever shake this cocktail
This is of course a tried and true and even subtle preparation of a classic long cocktail. I like the addition of the mint sprig too. Even the shape of the glass appeals to me (I had a fantastic G&T served to me in an identical receptacle at a Heston Blumenthal eatery).
My own personal perfect G&T involves a descent gin (naturally), Fever Tree's Elderflower Tonic and a slice of kiwi. Utterly divine.
Sonny Williamson Sounds wonderful
Only just discovered Gin and Tonic.
Can't wait to give this a try, Roll on Summer!
+Dave johnson You MUST give this a go!
+Jamie Oliver's Drinks Tube I bought some Bombay Sapphire and some Fever Tree tonic tonight, I'll never go back to Gordons and Schweppes ;)
Williams chase has a vary nice Gin pricey but it's the best
I made this for my mum and she said it was one of the best G&T's she has had. I've only ever had one with lemon but I'm converted to limes. I love Drinks Tube, can't wait to try something new next weekend.
+Laura Conway AMAZING! What do you think you'll try next?
Something Chrismassy.
can i just say this drink is amazing! i don't even like gin or bitter tasting things in general and i fell in love with this drink! I tell all my friends about it and i make sure the bartender makes it almost the same way. Thank you so much for introducing me to something new!
Thanks Ace Squared - that's exactly what we wanted to hear. You'll have to send us some photos next time you make it. You can add them to our 'Share a drink with Jamie' community on Google+ plus.google.com/u/0/b/116027252794147137089/communities/111293099851034021396
i really dig the way you make this amazing gin. altough i do prefer gins with a more intense herb flavor, like tanqueray e.g.
try: cucumber (sliced and wipe the glass with it) + ice + the duke gin (munich gin) + t. henry tonic. perfect, always!
Which Hendry tonic
Jamie Rocks guys.... Cooking is so wonderful the way he does it.
I usually squeeze two lime wedges and dunk them in and a bit more of tonic than gin ratio. Tanqueray is my fav gin.
Another recipe is the hendrick's cucumber g&t, shot of hendrick's, sliced up or muddled cucumber cubes (slices for garnish) and a bit of pepper and the tonic to top it off.
NICE!
"I like a bit of spankin'"
xxqwerty1993xx It's true :)
I love this video. Haven't made it any other way since watching it.
I was wondering.. Could you make a video where you went through all the popular gins ( Hendricks, Gin Mare, Tanqueray, Citadelle and so on ) and explained how to get the best G&T out of the specific gin ( The proper tonic and garnish )? I would absolutely love that.
I love Gin-Tonic. Some of my friends like Gin but don't want to have the Tonic Water. So I serve it with Sprite, 7Up or something like that. I know that it isn't the healthiest but it tastes great. Cranberry juice is also worth a try with Gin.
It's an acquired taste for some. Cranberry and Gin works well though.
Mmmmm G&T is one of those classics that is classic for a reason. Delicious!
+Savoy Style Preach!
thank you so much Jamie for making these fantastic videos! I have recently moved to England from Canada and been really getting into the hobby of shaking and stirring! These videos have really helped with learning the theory and method behind everything! Cheers!!
+Michael Landriault Keep up the GREAT work, Michael. Practice makes perfect! x
Try also the Fever Tree Tonic with Elderflower to go with it ----awesome
Feever-Tree Tonic is definitely the best. With Bombay, I would use the Mediterranean Tonic instead of the Indian though.
Also I wouldn't squeeze the first wedge of lime as the flavor will overwhelm the rest of the botanicals. Just 2 wedges in the glass are enough to enhance the citrus just before even putting your mouth in the glass as Jamie said.
Thanks DasMaingus
I did all of the above, plus, adding a spray of the lime / citrus juices around the outer parts of the glass, then take the skin, spank it as you say and coat the rim with the oil.
Simply something after a long day.
Beautiful
Jamie, have you ever had "One Night in Bangkok" ? well, if you have not, thats ok because, it is what i call my favorite cocktail, large glass, lots of ice, bombay sapphire, west coast cooler, dash of fresh 7up from a small can on top, slice of limon, give it a try when the kids have gone to bed with the missus watching George Clarks amazing spaces bang!!!! heaven mate...
I recomend Fentimans tonic for a perfect GnT. It's really well balanced, and it's even good on it's own, for mocktails, if you're not into alcohol.
Morten Arendt Thanks Morten.
Morten Arendt It really, really depends on the Gin which Tonic to use! Thomas Henry is nice for more gentle Gins
So is Fever Tree's Mediterranean Tonic, which I actually prefer to their standard Indian tonic. Definitely a treat though - it's like $7 for 6 bottles, compared to about $3.99 for a six pack of Schweppes.
my take on gin an tonic is:
- 50ml of gin
- 25ml of triple sec liqueur
- 100ml of tonic
- lime
- ice
give it a try, you are going to LOVE it, trust me :-)

ima huge fan of the G&T and greetings from germany, btw i tried some drinks out lately with odd ingedrients, came across a good combo,
1.put one and a half sprigs of parsley, ~half of a lemon, 15ml of sugar syrup and 100ml of good gin(used tanqueray for now) in a shaker and stir it up a bit
2. add freshly pressed grapefruit juice to it, a whole grapefruit, and fill it with ice
3. shake for ~15 sec strain the drink directly in 2 chilled tumblers and fill them barely to the top, then top with Ginger Beer
4. as for the garnish u can use a lemon zest or some sticks of freshly cut ginger
5. enjoy
Measurements: Gin 5cl, lemon juice ~25ml, 15ml sugar syrup, sprig of parsley, whole grapefruit, ice ofc and some ginger beer to top it off
Lucas Selhorst oh and cheers! ;)
I'm already obsessed with this man! "A little spanking is always nice"
Thank you for uploading this Jamie 😀 I have just recently started liking this drink, I'll definitely be giving it a try 😀
You are genious! Never get tired of your delicious creations!❤❤❤
Sapphire is my favorite gin for GTs, and I have found the quality and the taste spectrum of the tonic actually has a big impact on the final cocktail
Have you ever tried a classic Gordons London Dry with Schweppes and a squeez of blood orange? It's fantastic.
Gordens is as good as any gin only toffs love telling u it's cheap
Shit and they drink craft only toff toff, I've tried a lot of gins craft alike and I'm telling you now a classic London dry is always best, I mean come on gin is a juniper based spirit and there are gins now without the one thing that defines it ffs
Gordon is rubbish 😂
I've been making lots of cocktails as of recent and decided to give a bottle of gin a try this week. This summer heat could not have been a better time to test out the G&T. Many thanks for the how-to, I'll be keeping gin in my bar going forward! Cheers!
Take My Veganity Salute! Thanks for the kind words.
Currently enjoying one! Although I may or may not have slightly doubled the amount of gin... 😉
hey who measures anyway
Jack Rudy Cocktail Co.'s small batch tonic makes a world of difference. And since you have to mix 30ml of the small batch tonic to 80ml of sparkling water, you can use any light fizzy drink you can think of.
I still like mine basic with local sparkling water and lime, but, it's good to know, for those who like a slightly fruitier drink, you can replace the sparkling water with blood orange soda.
For me the best g&t is 1/2 Hendricks gin and 1/2 tonic with fresh cucumber :)
Try Brecon Gin from Penderyn in Wales - it's delicious.
I learned to enjoy a nice Gin and Tonic during a hot summer in London. Nothing refreshes you more after a hot and crowded journey on the Tube than a nice gin and tonic. I preferred Plymouth or Tanqueray, but Bombay Sapphire is good, too.
Jwend392 We are missing those long hot summer days (even if it does mean standing in sweaty tube carriages)
I have the gin tonic right in front of me. WOW! I am not a big fan of tonic but the lime and the mint make all the difference in this cocktail .
Fanatstic! Glad we could win you over with this recipe.
Fav drink of all time ! And the best thing about it : you will never feel bad next morning :p
Really? Take 3 of them and we can talk about it next... afternoon !
@@joso5554 i used to drink 0.5 gin beafeter without big hangover
i like mine with orange, the best flavor in my view
If you Like orange try the Monkey 47 and the Malfy con arancia gin ...its an awesome taste
My favorite drink! and now I use the new Sapphire East....delicious!!!
Me and my friend cook our own tonic. It's a delicate task but worth it. The plus is that we can play around with the spices.
Wow, talk us through the process.
Love the channel, thanks for showing us!
PhilipMayFilms No Philip, we love you.
I really feel like a G&T now.
Make one!
@@DrinksTube Gin is expensive!
Mum and dad stay in Barcelona quite a bit and they go to a local place they call the "gin palace" they get a large brandy glass, fill to thew brim with Ice, they put about 4 or 5 wedges of lime in as they fill with ice. They don't really measure the gin, they just pour until half full and then top up with tonic and give a quick stir, best gin they've ever drank apparently, don't measure, just wing it all in :D
Love the humor. And accent. And great job making the drink!
monicamuffin1 Cheers!
Happy World Gin Day! Awesome GnT
Thanks Gavin, hope you enjoyed #WorldGinDay as much as we did :)
so happy Jamie is using Bombay, good man
+S Shar OH. YEAH.
+Bullit Cake There is a fantastic boutique gin from a Stilbay, a small coastal village in South Africa, called Inverrroche. They have a gin that has infused Rooibos (an evergreen shrub with medicinal properties) in it, giving it an amber colour and unique taste. Sublime and so unique. Worth a try.
JustifyJustin my friend you had me at Stilbay!
+Bullit Cake Wiz Khalifa drinks Bombay Sapphire all the time.
Thanks Jamie. Came here looking for Gin and Tonic information and found some nice tips. In particular, rolling the lime. Cooling the glass with the ice (then removing the melted water). And the mint leaf I'll have to try.
***** Cheers Scott! Glad to be of service :)
Gin with soda water and lime.The absolute drink !
JOHNNYwxw :)
Ad a nice dash of Saint Germain and you got a real Summer treat
NICE.
Nice! Never done that, will give it a shot.
***** let me know if you liked it mate
mmmm bombay sapphire .. my guilty pleasure :)
After that first moment of savoring, I thought for sure there was going to be a montage of savor moments some almost ending and being immediately interrupted, some being short, some being a bit too long. Just a funny thought. Thanks for being a major inspiration to me for the last several years!
Thanks Chris
that's the first video which includes everything I read about and watched in the net, spanking a mint or basil , turning the ice to chill the glass, get rid of the fluid, not be afraid of adding some fresh lime in a special way, then not 1:3 but 1:2 that you have a quite strong g&t, the adding of a piece of lime...small details which makes the difference and thanks for explaining why bartenders use the spoon to let the tonic in....and now I want you spank a Boston shaker to open it :-)
Damn. Those slomo shots of the Gin.. I think i have to mix me a drink right now.
They're so nice, right? Giving us a taste for another G&T right now too.
7 o clock!? on a Saturday?! let your children live!!!
@timothy wait LOL
yeah! give them a gin
7 o clock? Why do you let them stay up so late? I'm thinking 5 o clock.
@@ghostjjg5432😂
Gin and tonic at 7 pm is two hours too late
I haven't tried Bombay Sapphire yet, but if you can get your hands on a South African Gin called Inverroche your mind will be truly blown. You don't even want to sip it, you just want to hold it up to your mouth so your nose can experience the effervescence. It's almost a supernatural experience. I've bought a dozen gins since then trying to find something comparable, but to no avail. I do however love your style bro!
that does look amazing. i love bombay sapphire.
Rub the lime around the rim of the glass :)
Gin Rhubarb and Ginger , in a champagne glass top up with prosecco or ginger beer
+Hary Fotopoulos YES PLEASE.
That use to be my go to Tanqueray Sapphire and Fever Tree but a London bartender introduced me to Beefeaters and Britvic tonic….. chef’s kiss
No suggestions, you have it exactly right. Especially with the Bombay Sapphire and Fever Tree.
Thanks Chris
tanqueray is better in my opinion
RawkCSSable I do find that regular Tanqueray can be a bit strong, but the Rangpur variety is just perfect in my view.
Jamie Im a huge fan! *HIGH FIVE!*
i8myrice2day2 HIGH TEN!
Try this recipe, Golden gin tonic!!!
1/2 oz golden rum
1/2 oz gin
3 oz tonic
Katoptrys needs more spanking
Had a tuscan gin with sprig of rosemary and a cluster of fresh pepper. Superb!
Can't beleive you posted that a year ago. Congrats on still going strong Drinkstube. I hvae FINALLY decided to try one of your cocktails. And its a G&T. Just like this. And its amazing. Having been a gin drinker off and on for years, I can't beleive I've never tried this.
Steph Hackworthy A year?!!! What were you waiting for? Great work on finally getting round to it, here is a whole playlist of gin cocktails for your to tackle ruclips.net/p/PLlnO2fSQw0mwZVFVvHjik9q8D7O9xbEKv
My favorite drink at the bar but I prefer Hendricks over Bombay. 😊
In my country Hendricks costs twice as much as Bombay, but nevertheless twice as appealling as Bombay.
Tanqueray No.10
Beefeater
When I'm feeling exotic, I replace tonic with elderflower water.
Thanks mate, used a lime off the tree I planted with my daughter when she was born. Came up a treat!
I like to chill the glass with ice but then take the ice out (so it doesn't melt!) and use frozen lemon and lime wedges :) cold and citrussy!
Title: Ultimate Gin Tonic.... Shows bottle of Bombay Sapphire... 😂
😂 no shit right!!,glad you said it,I was starting to feel like the only one who giggled at that!
I don’t get it 😅
Im a big fan of gin, I drink them straight, and actually Bombay is an excellent choice. Delicate but has an understated intensity, a good choice if you like the citrus notes, a bit of pepper, and warm sweet spices. Its strong spiciness doesnt linger long in a G&T though, so thats 1 to you. Ive tasted quite a lot of less well-known gins, and still both Bombay and Tanqueray are fantastic - though the more robust Tanq, as 'the twit' quite rightly says, may suit lemon more.
Your proportions are backwards, but your techniques are fascinating. Thanks!
Jim Kunkle Er... Thanks?
Jim Kunkle 100 ml of gin and 50 ml of tonic? Damn dude. I give your liver condolences
Coliflowerz no point in risking malaria. It is summer time after all, and every drop of quinine counts. ;-)
nice touch with the use of the ballon glass. alot of people use a collins glass but the ballon shape really helps the aoma of the botanicals collect at the opening of the glass. I think it suits gin perfectly
m1k3y~ミクト Absolutely. You really get a proper hit of those botanicals.
Jamie Oliver's Drinks Tube you don't get any aroma when you have a lot of ice in your glass.Why are you using Bombay sapphire? by adding fresh fragrant mint you killed this flavourless gin.
Never tried with mint! Loved it! He cannot only cook ... He rules the tube-drinks as well! Yay and well done mr Oliver!!!
Cheers!
Hi Jamie a little fan of urs here, Idk but can u try making a drink recipe video with some light music, I think it's would be rather relaxing and enjoyable hopefully?
We'll see what we can do Thomas!
You can use a stick of lemongrass as an aromatic stirrer
theAlmightyKush Great idea.
Very nice! The spoon trick with the tonic was cool. I love Hendrick's and tonic with muddled lime and cucumber.
It's great isn't it? A really neat little trick to try at home.
The other night I was at Jamie's Italian Glasgow enjoying cocktails with a couple of friends. I had the Florence Fizz and would really love to learn how to make it
Love both foodtube and drinkstube, keep up the good work.
Hi ***** thanks for the request, we'll add it to the list. Thanks for the worlds of encouragement too!
Scrap the lime! Slice of mango instead = magical!
Jules Coll Nice. Need to give that a try.
It will sound weird but cucumber and a basil leaf works well too
Rosemary and thyme also works wonders with more woody gins.
Cucumber is rather common in bars, I have discovered. Especially if you ask for Hendricks gin. Not my cup of tea, though.
I can tell Jamie likes rubbing and spanking... xD
Thank you Jamie you really bring joy with a simple stuff in life, brining back smile in these hard pandemic times. Looking forward to watch your drinks tube and try a lot of drinks, because, what else can I do every day at home :) cheers from Serbia
g&t a simple classic, grapefruit is my my citrus if we've got any, but if not lime everytime, perfect.
I drank one and a half cup of gin once, thinking it was sprite...
Ouch. We're sure you didn't repeat the mistake!
rolling the lime DOES NOT make a difference. Morgenthaler scientifically disproved it.
best comment I´ve read this month.
i think he knows what he does
It does, it releases the oils, just smell your hand after rolling a lime or taste it. It will be bitter because of the oil and that's why Oliver squeezes it that way.
And using 60 limes is not Science, it is not statistically significant.
But your anecdotal evidence is better?
I prefer a lemon wedge over a lime, but that's just personal!!! Lovely
I used to use citrus on my G&T too but it was just that once that I tried cucumber instead of citrus I am totally converted! You should try that too Jamie!
Thanks Vic.
Screw the tonic. Gin on the rocks works for me
***** Easy tiger.
Jamie Oliver's Drinks Tube thank you for the video. what about pre chilling the glass in my freezer?
Ultimate Gin Tonic and he make it with Bombay Sapphire 🤒
The Sapphire is an excellent gin! Dont be fooled by its widespread use. Ive tried many a lesser-known gin and very few come close. The other good one thats quite available is Tanqueray, which is fantastic too but on the robust side so it suits lemon.
I never expected myself to be a fan of gin, but I must say that I love it. Nothing like a good gin and tonic at the end of a stressful week.
I preffer a gin at the end of a stressfull DAY ;-)
+Alexandre Vilarinho i prefer a drink DURING the day. stressful or stress free.
