and i think the tonic is more important than the gin. a lousy tonic can ruin good gin in that drink. also, lots of ice.

I love Radler/Shandy. It’s best with Rolling Rock and Minute Maid lemonade.

Else a bourbon/cranberry. Try Evan Williams w/Ocean Spray.

Orange Crush:

Start with a big glass full of ice
two fingers of Orange Vodka
two fingers of Triple Sec
Juice of one freshly squeezed orage
top off with Sprite.

Mmmmmmm…. I’m gonna make one now. Oh the joys of the virtual office!

Pimm’s Cup is my new fave drink for summer. I add in strawberries, lemon, lime, orange and cucumbers (don’t leave out the cucumbers!). I discovered this weekend that it’s best if you let the fruit marinate in the Pimm’s for a few hours before adding in the Sprite (and you can’t make fun of me using Sprite since that’s how I was taught to make it by my Brit friend). Superbly brilliant!

Gotta love a good Gin and Tonic. Mint Juleps are also pretty amazing.
