The Perfect Serve
There are many ways to enjoy our spirits – and a classic gin and tonic is a great place to start.
For the perfect Blowing Stone London Dry gin and tonic, mix approximately three parts tonic to one part gin and garnish with pink grapefruit or a citrus segment such as lime or orange. We always recommend using a great premium tonic such as Fever Tree or Franklin’s in a Copa glass with plenty of ice.
The only thing left to do is join your friends and enjoy!
Please drink responsibly.
