Mix and garnish: Try it with Cushiedoos tonic and a slice of blood orange or if you like the flavour of Fever-Tree Aromatic Tonic, it works very well with that too.
If you like Perth Gin, try these: Pickerings Original 1947 or Kintyre
A highly distinctive, floral gin. No perfect serve – They say the variety of flavours and the complex, slow distillation create a gin that lends itself to many tastes and the garnish and mixer should be chosen to draw out whichever elements you prefer, be that floral, herbal, menthol or citrus.

Mix and garnish: We suggest trying it with Fever-Tree Cucumber tonic and a slice of apple.
If you like the Botanist, try this: Seven Crofts

Mix and garnish: Delicious with Fever-Tree Original, a slice of orange and a sprig of rosemary.
If you like Shetland Reel Simmer Gin, try this: Valentia
Like no other, this is Ribena for grown-ups! The more traditional notes of gin are combined with a refreshing influence of citrus and aromatic wild blackberries and blueberries. BUY NOW >
Mix and garnish: Perfect with Fever-Tree Premium tonic, a twist of pink grapefruit peel and 2 blueberries. Alternatively try with ginger ale or neat over ice.
If you like Brockmans, try this: Bright Spirits Pips
Juniper provides the backbone, complemented by crisp and citrusy lime, and underpinned by earthy flavours of pink peppercorns. The result is deliciously complex, dry and thoroughly refreshing. BUY NOW >
Mix and garnish: Serve with Fever-Tree Refreshingly Light Tonic and a wedge of lime.
If you like Lind & Lime, try these: Persie Citrus or Redcastle
