Lyndoch G & T

This is a nice long drink for a summer afternoon. A added a dash of Lime Cordial to sweeten it up a bit, but not enough to overpower it. Muddling the lemon, lime and gin prior to adding the tonic gives a full citrus flavour.

Over 4 cubes of ice
2 oz Bombay Gin
1 slice lemon - halved
1 slice lime - halved
1/4 oz Lime Cordial

Muddle the mixture with a fork to mix the gin and get the flavour out of the fruit.

Top up with tonic.

When I christened my deck at the cottage, this was one of the first drinks I made. It got a lot of compliments, so I named it after the lake.
