This Gin & Tonic is more than just a drink – it’s a luxurious taste journey evoking memories of snowfall, candlelight, and the magic of the season. Perfect for joyful gatherings or cozy nights by the fire.

Ingredients (for 1 drink):

  • 5 cl gin (a spiced London Dry Gin works well)
  • Tonic water (to taste)
  • 1 slice of orange
  • 1 small cinnamon stick
  • Fresh rosemary
  • Frozen lingonberries or cranberries (for color and flavor)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the glass: Take a tall glass and fill it with ice cubes.

  2. Add the gin: Pour the gin over the ice, letting it begin to chill and blend.

  3. Infuse with festive flavors: Add a slice of orange and a cinnamon stick to bring out that holiday aroma. Toss in a sprig of rosemary for a refreshing, evergreen note.

  4. Top up with tonic: Fill the glass with tonic water to your preferred taste. A neutral tonic will allow the spices and citrus to shine.

  5. Add color with berries: Drop in a few frozen lingonberries or cranberries for a beautiful color and an extra touch of wintery freshness.

  6. Finish with aroma: Lightly rub a rosemary sprig between your fingers before placing it in the glass. This releases a delightful fragrance that enhances the drink’s holiday spirit.

Tips:

  • For a sweeter twist, add a splash of elderflower liqueur or apple juice.

  • To elevate the look, dip the rim of the glass in lemon juice, then sugar, before filling it. This creates a slightly sweet edge that pairs wonderfully with the gin and tonic.

Serve and enjoy your magical, festive Gin & Tonic – a drink that lights up the winter night!
