    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.

    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.

    @unorthodoxromance254 6 лет назад +6

    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.

  • @InsaneWisePeoples

    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.

      In my country Hendricks costs twice as much as Bombay, but nevertheless twice as appealling as Bombay.

    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

    • @DrinksTube

      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.

      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.

  • @DasMaingus
    @DasMaingus 10 лет назад +2

    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.

  • @JulesColl

      It will sound weird but cucumber and a basil leaf works well too

    • @BattleCheese2

      Rosemary and thyme also works wonders with more woody gins.

    • @DasdeutschesBand

      Cucumber is rather common in bars, I have discovered. Especially if you ask for Hendricks gin. Not my cup of tea, though.

  • @winter2625
    @winter2625 10 лет назад +1

    Very nice! The spoon trick with the tonic was cool. I love Hendrick's and tonic with muddled lime and cucumber.

      @davidbernalromero6571 7 лет назад +4

      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.

      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.
