    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the proper glass for a gin and tonic?

    The easy answer is a rocks glass or a highball glass. However, as noted above, I've started drinking my G&T's in a big bowl glass like a red wine glass.

    What's the best gin for a gin and tonic?

    I am partial to Bombay Sapphire. However, Nancy likes Tanqueray and tonic. My best buddy from the UK prefers Aviation gin. So my best advice is to experiment with a few different brands and see which one you like best.
