World Gin Day!

[EcclesCake]

How will you be celebrating?

Hendricks with a slice of cucumber, chilled Millers neat over ice, SipSmith with Fevertree tonic and a wedge of lime how do you like your gin?

[daisya]

Oh damn I missed it I celebrated it a day too early!

[gness]

Three drops in a Guinness would be just about enough.... :-(

[EcclesCake]

Jeez, I wish I could rewrite that! It looks like I've already started celebrating!

[albaqwerty]

gin, ice, tonic and a slice of lemon.
Although the tonic and the citrus fruit have a lot to answer for the next day.

[daisya]

That'd be drowning it then gness lol. Like mine with tonic or bitter lemon also at times with fresh orange..mmm nice.

I`ve never, in my whole life, tried gin and tonic. Not even a sip. I used to drink gin and bitter lemon when I worked in a pub during college days and if I smell gin, it takes me right back to some very happy memories. I`ve never drunk it since though.

[albaqwerty]

237, if you can remember it must have been watered down gin :-D

[237SJ]

I don`t know if it was watered down, all I remember is that I didn`t pay for it (we used to help ourselves)

[albaqwerty]

aah, that's the important part, not paying for it I mean :-D

[237SJ]

I remember one day, going along all the optics and trying them all. That`s what happens when you put a load of kids behind a bar. The landlord used to like Plymouth gin. I`m not sure you see that around so much these days.

[albaqwerty]

I remember Gordon's and Beefeater's, there was a third whose name escapes me but that was really oily.
(Haven't bought gin for quite a while)

[gness]

For me the only way to drink it is to water it down...with plenty of Guinness, Daisya.x

[albaqwerty]

what a dreadful way to treat guiness gness! :-) x

[FredPuli43]

Must get the wallah to bring a pink'un for the mem. Thanks for reminding me. She gets a bit awkward without , when the sun is over the yard arm.

[stewey]

Good God, gness; ginned Guinness...Gadzooks!

[paddywak]

Don't touch normal gin, but I must admit to being quiet fond of Sloe Gin

[gness]

Ahhh...Guinness is good with anything.......now Sloe Port...that I love. x

[welshtanner]

Gordons gin and tonic, no ice and no lemon. The oldfashioned way!

[DTCwordfan]

Tanqueray, loads of rocks, slice of lime or cuc, a splash of tonic

Sipsmiths on ice, no tonic (or any other liquid), slice of lime

Bombay Sapp for a Dry Martini.

[Baldric]

Will be raising a celebratory glass or three later,
with s/line tonic and slice of lime!
