Can you mix gin and whisky in a drink?
Cocktail Colin dice:
Yes, you can mix gin and whisky, but it is an unusual pairing and you will not see many classic, widely named serves built around both in one glass.
If your aim is to explore how the two spirits behave, the easiest approach is to try them in similar, simple formats so you can compare what you like: long, fizzy drinks for refreshment, or short, stronger pours for warmth.
From the cocktails here, a good starting point on the whisky side is Whisky and coke (highly rated and very easy to enjoy), or Jack And Ginger if you want a brighter, spicier mixer. If you fancy something shorter and more intense, Whisky Mac is a classic two-ingredient option.
On the gin side, Gin And Tonic is the benchmark, while Gin Highball is a neat bridge if you already enjoy ginger ale with whisky.
If you are choosing just one to begin with, these tend to be the most straightforward:
- Whisky and coke
- Gin And Tonic
- Jack And Ginger
- Gin Highball
