This was too strong. I have been drinking G&T for a while and I was surprised at ratio for this mix. I would lower it to 2 ounces Gin and keep everything else the same.

Schweppes in the US tastes terrible: high fructose completely changes it compared to Europe+Latin America's sugar recipe, whole different thing ! (especially in the small glass bottles.

Adding lime juice makes a Gin and Tonic a Gin Rickey. Don't use Schweppes; it's sweetened and makes it slightly heavy in these proportions. Fever Tree or Q Tonic are both better alternatives. The lightest Gin Rickey's are blended with seltzer.

I always use Fever Tree or one of the more thougtfully prepared tonic waters out there now instead of the sickeningly syrupy sweetness of Schweppes or other big brands. Combined with Hendricks or Plymouth, lime, and ice it makes for a fantastic cocktail

This was a very tasty gin & tonic, kind of strong, but the ice cubes were a nice touch. The fresh lime packed a kick.

This is very truly the perfecdt gin and tonic for me. I too use Hendricks although I've never had Plymouth so I'll have to give that a try. I didn't have the tonic ice cubes and didn't want to wait but will try this next time.

I must say, having been a G & T fan for decades I have never come across the frozen tonic ice cube thing before. What an amazing idea. I don't enjoy slamming down a drink but you almost have to with ice. When you're paying for the good stuff it's nice to finish a mix drink with the same flavor you started with. So thanks to the person who thought of it. From this point on I will never again have a weak homemade G & T.

PEACE-OUT

I had to add a little extra tonic water, but this was very good! Yum!
