Opskrift on the perfect Gin & Tonic

The perfect Gin & Tonic

Ingredients:

• 1 part gin - we recommend ELG Gin
• 2-3 parts tonic, depending on how strong you like your G&T
• Lots of ice - preferably large pieces, the larger the surface area - the longer they take to melt
• Garnish: Here you choose the type that best suits your gin - if you use ELG Gin no.1 - we recommend fresh juniper berries or a cheeky stick from a carrot - alternatively a (dried) lemon wheel.
• Large glass

Procedure:

• Fill the glass with large ice cubes. Add your ELG GIN and use a stirring spoon for a good while. The contact between the ice and the gin releases the many spicy aromas.
• Add your tonic
• Add your Garnish - either dried shapes or fresh cuts
• Serve with a smile

Here at Whisky.dk we love gin and tonic. That's why we've put together a large selection of the best gin brands and tonic waters, as well as an exclusive selection of Danish gin. We want to share our passion and love for gin and tonic, so sit back and enjoy our gin and tonic universe.

Gin originates from the Netherlands and is a contraction of the French word for juniper. People started mixing alcohol with juniper berries in the 1600s and it was used to treat kidney pain. This spread to England and the English soldiers took a liking to it. The gin was later sold in pharmacies and used for ailments. Today, gin is known for its use in drinks such as gin and tonic, dry Martini and Tom Collins.
