Lot's of Gin....

[Kerr the Walker]

OK -- I walked up to the supermarket at lunch... I purchased

1) 3 limes
2) 1 liter of Canada Dry Collins Mixer
3) 1 liter if Canada Dry Tonic Water (w/quinine)
4) $5 quick pick Mega Millions
5) 2 Kooky Pens for my darling little 5 year old daughter who deserves so much more .....

A couple questions... and going to ask them without fear of sounding stupid .. because I wear a kilt and fear NOTHING!

Does all the mixer is gin to be a Tom Collins? Do I need to make either the tonic water or mixer cold? What is quinine? Did I forget anything?

**** and now I am a samurai?!?!?!?! Whoa...

Making the mixers cold will reduce ice meltage. It'll also help keep it from fizzing up like crazy when you pour it over the ice.

Quinine is....well I have no idea where it actually comes from, but it's fairly bitter and used to be (still may be) used as malaria medicine.


Welcome to the wonderful world of gin!
