Struggling to think of a more innocous, neutral-tasting alcoholic drink.

Thank god for that. I thought this was going to be praising them. If that was so you would truly have to hand in your membership of the heterosexual club.

Not a big fan of gin & tonic either, but I do love me a martini.

I enjoy a good G&T around the holiday season.

Gin sucks.  I think a friend said it best, "Why take a perfectly good vodka and then drop a pine cone into it."

I love martinis, but vodka martinis.  Or a Manhatten.

Gin & Tonic is delicious, if made with the proper proportions and with a good gin  :bowler:

I can't stand the taste of tonic water by itself.  I'd sooner just take the gin straight up or on the rocks, not that I'm a huge fan of gin in the first place.

If it was in Jello form, tim would gobble that shit up like a 17 year old girl.

I love gin and tonic, though nowadays I go real lite on the tonic.  A nice healthy glass of gin on the rocks with a splash of tonic, yumm.

One of the two really tears up my stomach though so I don't drink it as often as I used to.

as a bonus Tim, if you're in a club, gin and tonics glow under blacklight.  You can use this to impress the Korean teenyboppers.

The last time we were in London my wife discovered heaven on earth - a grocery store selling G+T in a can.  No need for her to buy separate bottles of gin and tonic and a lime.  A sure sign the British are still the most civilized.

It's a refreshing summer beverage for the gentleman and lady of taste. No wonder Tim doesn't like it. Maybe you should try a Pimms.

I've had that here, it was very gross. Certainly not for people of discerning taste.

A sure sign the British are raving drunks who can't even wait to get home to mix a drink, you mean.
