I love the U.K. for many different reasons: cadbury chocolates, fred perry, david bowie and gin. I have already spoken of my love of Hendricks Gin. But this week I have a new favorite, Martin Miller's. A delicious gin, distilled in England and blended in Iceland with their spring water. Slice of lime, Schwepps Tonic and Martin Miller's = perfection.
Recently a friend visiting from Europe explained how strange it was to order a gin and tonic and find it garnished with lime. His gin and tonics' had, up until this point, been garnished with cucumber. The idea did not appeal to me until I read Hendrick's suggests serving their gin and tonic with cucumber not lime.
