      @@grantmurdock7385 Are you a Gin drinker otherwise? My sister has about 40 different Gins in her home bar, a friend works at a very fancy hotel in Cologne and gave us his mix list (Which Gin goes with which tonic and condiment), I agree that Aviation does not smell too nice, but in the right pairing, it can absolutely be part of a delicious mixed drink. And to be fair who has ever bought a bottle of Gin to drink it straight.

    Just opened my Asian Parsnip Gin. It's fantastic. I taste most of the stuff especially the cardamom. I've always had lime in my G&T until I lived in the UK (wish I were back). The Black Bird in Croughton got me hooked on Hendricks with cucumber. If I have a G&T now, it's the only way. Gonna try it with James' gin today. I have both Hendricks and James, maybe a side-by-side.

    I prefer adding the ice last. This way, the drink mixes itself as you pour the ingredients into the glass. With ice present, that mixing can't take place.

    I approve of the glass - G&T has always been a 'long' drink, no idea why people started serving it in goldfish bowls on stems.
    However, I abhor the cucumber! I've been drinking G&T for longer than I care to remember and am heartily sick of now having to specify when I order that I don't want it served with assorted vegetables, a fruit salad or half a shrubbery!

    • @helplmchoking
      @helplmchoking Před 2 lety +1

      Yes! A G&T is a tall drink, I'll accept a slice of lemon to amp up the citrus and maybe a couple ice cubes if I'm in the sun but it's a simple, refreshing drink. If you want your gin in a martini glass, order a damn martini (which I do, not a fan of tonic)

    • @englishatheart
      @englishatheart Před 2 lety +2

      I couldn't care less what glass is used, as long as it tastes good.

    • @LanguagesWithAndrew
      @LanguagesWithAndrew Před 2 lety +2

      That's the Spanish who started that trend. I was there in 2015 (Zaragoza) for a couple of months. Goddamn do they love the G&T, as well as making all manner of variation of it with different spices and fruits and whatnot (I adore this type of adventerous entrepreneurial experimentation, so even if 9 out of 10 such concoctions are shit I still say it's good that they're doing them because you then find that 1 in 10 that's amazing).
      What's hilarious in comparison is the complete lack of martinis in every Spanish bar or even the knowledge of their existence. Ask for a "martini" and you will get, I'm not kidding you, some Martini (brand) vermouth on the rocks in a lowball glass.

    Mr. Spaniel. I wish trere was a podcast that's not focused on a specific topic, rather a bit of all round tomfoolery, cause surprisingly, it's not about the tone or the voice of mr. May, but rather the conversation itself, cause more often than not, his asking and answering aligns to the content of a proper conversation with two people. Very lovely to listen to, while idling in the car, or generally idling.
