Alex Province’s Spanish Gin & Tonic

spanish gin and tonic_recipe_Tom Raftery

Your classic G&T gets an upgrade with aromatics like citrus, rosemary, and mint. Use the best tonic you can find and instead of using a highball glass, serve this in an almost ridiculously big, bulbous wine glass. It’s fresh and festive and allows the room you need for all those fragrant add-ins.

• ON-DEMAND: Listen to Alex describe this super-simple summer cocktail. •

    We were just in Spain and I can tell you this is a very authentic recipe right down to the glass. Lemon was always used and sometimes we got pink pepper and juniper berries in ours. My favorite was a dried slice of Seville orange. Tanqueray actually makes an orange hued Seville gin.
