gin

Some drinks feel like they need a whole setup. A Tom Collins does not. It is just gin, fresh lemon, a little sweetness and cold soda water — but when the balance is right, it tastes bright, fizzy and way more polished than the effort suggests.

A gin and tonic is one of those drinks that looks almost too simple to talk about — until you make a really good one at home. The difference usually comes down to small things: cold tonic, enough ice, the right ratio, and a gin that actually works with the garnish. This version keeps things classic and uncomplicated. Crisp, bubbly, slightly bitter, and easy to pour in just a few minutes, it’s the kind of drink that quietly becomes a regular habit once you get it right.
