The Classic G&T with lemon or lime and ALCONOT™ twist

The Classic G&T with lemon or lime and ALCONOT™ twist

The easiest and some say, most refreshing Signature Blend cocktail, it takes minutes to make and if you take your time will last you at least half an hour, book in hand you could go a full hour, during which time the taste of the drink changes and leaves you with s desire for more.

It’s my go to – when i’m gagging for an ALCONOT™ & T

Ingredients

2 Measures of ALCONOT™ Signature Blend (ASB)- 50ml or 100ml if your feeling generous into shaker (you can put the bottle in the freezer if you like to make it even colder, avoid freezing, it takes ages to pour otherwise)

1/2 a lemon / lime freshly squeezed

medium ice – 5-6 cubes

Fever Tree – Mediterranean tonic, start with 2 portions of ALCONOT™ Signature Blend and 1 portion to the tonic and work up to the desired taste and then stop.

Sliced lemon or lime.

The Mixology bit (the bit i like)

Carefully pour the Signature Blend into a shaker, followed by the freshly squeezed lemon or lime, securely close the cap on the shaker and shake away, checking the taste and keep shaking if you need to, the more you shake the better the mix.

Place 5 or 6 ice cubes in a glass of your choice (Collins or similar tall glass would be my choice)

Pour the mixed cocktail slowly over the ice so it gets a touched by the cold of the ice

Let it settle

Pour the Fever Tree perfect partner Mediterranean tonic slowly of the the ice and allow it to settle, don’t stir or shake as all the bubbles will be lost

Drink using a straw or straight lips on glass.
