What is your favorite gin based mixed drink?
Answers:
Gin and orange juice, or gin and tonic with a splash of lime. A traditional martini is also made with gin, but it seems to have slipped into second place to a vodka martini. If you choose to go with a gin martini, the best type is an "in and out". Put your ice in a shaker, then pour in god vermouth, shake it around and throw it out but retain ice. Pour your gin over the ice then shake or stir and pour into well chilled glass with two olives. This gives you the slight vermouth taste, but the gin predominates. I like most martinis and like the gin version for a change.
The only way I'll drink gin is if you hide it in a Long Island Iced Tea. Otherwise I can't stand it.

Bombay Sapphire, with 7-UP or Sprite and a splash of Roses lime juice.
Keep it simple with a gin and tonic. Make sure you have a slice of fresh lime with it!
