Drinking gin

[Aurora]

Do you like gin? If so, what have you tried, besides gin and tonic?

Ever use gin in a recipe? Your favorite brand?

It is popular in the UK more so in U.S.

Gin Martini made with with Bombay Saphire and just a whiff of Vermouth.
Also, a "Bond Martini", shaken not stirred of course. Two parts Beefeater Gin, one part vodka, and a splash of Lillet

There used to be a drink called a Gin Ricky I've heard about but never drank one.

I recently had a G & T garnished with crushed basil; it was pretty good.

Salty Dog

A salty dog is a cocktail of gin, or vodka, and grapefruit juice, served in a highball glass with a salted rim. The salt is the only difference between a salty dog and a greyhound. Vodka may be used as a substitute for gin; nevertheless, it is historically a gin drink.

I used to really like a drink called a Singapore Sling. Lots of ingredients besides gin. Too much trouble to make at home.
