The very first G&T I ever had was absolutely delicious but I have never been able to find another one like that. Ive been told thay both good gin and good tonic make a huge difference so I was hoping for some Canadian recommendations.

    I really like Hendrick’s (but it’s expensive and not Canadian). I’ve seen. Sheringham Seaside & Empress recommended before - those are both Canadian.

    One note, gin is literally just vodka flavored with botanicals. So if you figure out what flavors you do and don’t like, you can make your own to-taste.

    Example:

    750 ml Vodka
2 tablespoons juniper berries
1 teaspoon coriander seed
4 allspice berries
1/4 teaspoon fennel seed
3 green cardamom pods
3 black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
1 long orange peel

      This might be worthwhile if I get really into gin but for now I will probably try to explore what I can get in the store
