What is the best tonic for orange gin?

Answered by Michael Blake

The Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic is crafted to be the perfect companion to premium gins, with its delicate and balanced flavors. It has a clean and crisp taste, with a subtle sweetness that doesn't overpower the gin. The quinine provides a gentle bitterness, which adds depth and complexity to the overall drink. The botanicals used in the tonic, such as lemon thyme and rosemary, harmonize with the orange and passionfruit flavors of the gin, creating a truly harmonious combination.

One of the reasons why I personally love this pairing is because it allows the flavors of both the gin and the tonic to shine. The orange and passionfruit notes of the gin are not overshadowed by an overly sweet or overpowering tonic. Instead, they are complemented and enhanced by the subtle botanicals and bitterness of the Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic.

1. Fill a glass with ice cubes.

3. Open a bottle of Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic and pour it into the glass, filling it to the top.
4. Gently stir the drink to ensure the flavors are well mixed.
5. Garnish with a slice of orange or a sprig of rosemary, if desired.

The result is a refreshing and balanced drink that showcases the vibrant orange and passionfruit flavors of the gin, while also providing a subtle bitterness and aromatic complexity from the tonic. It's the perfect drink to enjoy on a warm summer evening or whenever you're in the mood for a citrusy and tropical gin experience.
