With the warm weather creeping in, having drinks outside is becoming more of a reality. With my new series, Dandy Drinks, I’m going to show you easy to make cocktails to share with friends. The best drinks are for hanging out with your friends at home and having fun – good times with good people/real friends! So here’s how to make gin and tonic to get you started.

I’ve teamed up with Seagram’s Gin to showcase the first drink recipe on Dandy Drinks. Did you know Seagram’s Gin has been distilled in America since 1939? I went with Seagram’s Gin since it’s easy to enjoy – very mixable, and with 7 different flavors + extra dry, there’s something for everyone. We will be using Seagram’s Extra Dry for this cocktail.

HERE’S WHAT YOU’LL NEED

• 1 part Seagram’s Extra Dry Gin
• 2 parts tonic water
• Limes
• Ice
• Highball glass

STEP 1: PREP

Wash limes and slice into wedges.

STEP 2: MIX

Pour ingredients over ice in a highball glass. For the best effect then you should try and use clear ice. Take a look at these instructions on dramson to create your own perfectly clear ice.

STEP 3: SERVE

Garnish with a lime wedge. (take a thin slice of lime and then cut it from the center to the edge of the peel. Twist it and put it on the edge of your glass.)

Easy peasy. And look at that fizz!

A great casual drink for your next get together, birthday, or watching old WWE matches with friends. The best of times are made right at home. This summer, make an effort to chill with friends. Seagram’s Gin is a great go to for the stay at home party. Hell, be like the first dandy, George Brummell, and throw a levée with your friends.

Hope you like Dandy Drinks. Let me know what you think and what cocktails I should tackle next. What else goes well with gin?
