A gin and tonic is a highball cocktail made with gin and tonic water poured over a large amount of ice. The ratio of gin to tonic varies according to taste, strength of the gin, other drink mixers being added, etc., with most recipes calling for a ratio between 1:1 and 1:3. It is usually garnished with a slice or wedge of lime.
Pour the gin into a highball or gin glass.
Hold the glass at an angle and gently add the tonic water (pouring slowly at a gentle angle will preserve the effervescence).
Gently lower ice into the glass.
Garnish with a lime wedge.
