What I used as a garnish

Others move further away from lemons and limes. Julia Forte from the London Gin Club advises: “Match your garnish to the specific or highlighting botanicals in the gin. Lime, rhubarb, or an olive work well with dry gins, while grapefruit, citrus peel, cucumber, and rose petals work with floral gins. For a savory gin, try rosemary, thyme, or basil with a cherry tomato.” Find fifteen of our more unusual G&T garnishes here. ICE IS KEY Other gins in their range are for example a traditional London Dry gin, a Lime Tree gin, a Classic Pink gin, and of course their Lemon Grove gin. While their goal is to balance the original recipe and its strong juniper-forward taste with the zesty and refreshing taste of the lemons, some would argue that the lemon taste is too strong and overpowers the drink a bit. For newcomers to gin, this is also a great option because it’s extremely easy to drink and has a nice and smooth finish. LoneWolf and Brewdog have partnered up a few times already for a few other gins, and they are absolutely great!

The juniper is still present and it makes for a pleasant smooth drink, but it is a bit sweeter, so if you’re mixing it with tonic or soda water, don’t add too much or it will probably be too sweet. This way you get a nice lemon-flavored gin that is somewhat more crisp, sweet, and refreshing than a typical gin, while the strong juniper notes are still very much present.Meet the newest addition to Sipsmith’s range of fine spirits: our deliciously indulgent Lemon Drizzle Gin – exclusive to M&S.

They contain more citrusy notes and are often perceived as a bit more easy-to-drink and refreshing than other gins. This, however, goes more for the people who don’t really enjoy the classic piney and dry taste standard gins offer.
