Gin used to be a herbal medicine and has evolved now to a spirit whose flavor is predominantly from juniper berries. Back in the day, the British residents of India used to drink it with tonic water because the tonic contains quinine which reduced the chances of Malaria. It is said that is how the drink gin and tonic was born.
Reincarnating this old tradition, a cold glass of gin and tonic with a hint of fresh lime is a great way to end long, hot and hard days at work.
