You might wonder if a gin and tonic is really a drink worthy of a post from us. But there is more to this cocktail than first meets the eyes. With the emergence of different styles of gin and unique flavored tonics, the refreshing mixture is now evolving into more than just a two ingredient cocktail- it is becoming its own drink category.
