Gin and Tonic

In the summer, the English swear by their Gin and Tonics. Originally developed as a way to make malaria medicine more palatable with the herbal notes from gin, this dead-easy cocktail is a crowd-pleaser whether you’re in colonial India or your backyard. If you’re hosting a party, this is one you can make in a moment.

You’ll need:
2-3oz gin to taste
Tonic Water
One Lime Wedge

Fill a glass with ice, add the gin, fill with tonic water. If you want to be fancy, put a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. It probably took you longer to read this than it will take you to make, and that’s one of the best things about a gin and tonic.
