What is a mixed drink recipe including gin that has as few ingredients as possible?
Cocktail Colin says:
For a simple yet classic gin-based cocktail with minimal ingredients, the Gin and Tonic is your best bet. Rated 4.5 out of 5, this cocktail combines just two main ingredients: gin and tonic water. The delightful simplicity lies in its refreshing combination of the herbal complexities from the gin and the effervescent bitterness of the tonic. Typically served in a highball glass, this drink is garnished with a slice of lime, which adds just the right amount of zest and aromatic flair. With a low alcohol content of 4% and a total volume of 300ml, it's a perfect choice for those looking for a casual and sophisticated beverage that's easy to make and welcoming at any occasion.
If you're interested in slightly more complexity while keeping the ingredient list short, consider the Gin Rickey. With only three ingredients – gin, lime, and soda water (for a bit of a bubbly finish) – the Gin Rickey provides a crisp and light experience. It has a somewhat higher alcohol content of 8% compared to a Gin and Tonic and is also served over ice. The lime juice contributes a tangy citrus flavor, which complements the botanical notes in the gin beautifully.
