How to make a Gin and Soda

To make a Gin and Soda, build over ice in a highball glass: 2 oz gin, 5 oz soda water and ¼ oz lime.

You'll need

1 drink

Instructions

  1. 1

    Fill a highball glass with ice cubes.

  2. 2

    Pour in gin and lime juice.

  3. 3

    Top with soda water.

  4. 4

    Give it one gentle stir.

Why build it in the glass? Nothing here needs shaking, and pouring straight in keeps the soda water fizzy.
