SoCo makes me wanna jump off a cliff.
I mixed up a nice batch of Gin and Tonic before the debate tonight. Delicious.
Ian's fool proof G&T recipe:
1.5 oz. Tanqueray Gin
3 oz. Schweppe's Tonic Water
Wedge of lime
Ice.
Fill a rocks glass with ice, pour gin over the ice
Squeeze lime wedge over gin and toss it in.
Pour tonic over ice, give a quick stir and enjoy.
I know many people would think a drink with 3 ingredients is impossible to mess up, but that's far from true. Look at how **** people are about Martinis...
I've found that a 1:2 mix (1 part gin to two parts tonic) is ideal to taste the gin but not be too strong, and not have the quinine in the tonic over power the drink (quinine is quite bitter and can ruin it.)
So measure the tonic, don't just fill the glass. The ratio is part of a good drink.
I also prefer Tanqueray to any other gin I've had. It has a lighter flavor than something like Bombay Sapphire or Hendricks (those are better for martinis).
Give it a shot, it's effing delicious.

my new poison of choice is Cheerwhine and Crown Royal. I call it a "Cheering Crown"
for those not based in the Carolinas (since i think this is the only place they have it) Cheerwhine like a Cherry coke counterpart but taste much better. also look up Sun Drop. like mountain dew, but better.
