Elderflower Gin & Tonic

Elderflower Gin & Tonic

Since my freshman year in college, gin and tonic has been signature my drink. So, it was a serendipitous coincidence to discover that gin alone was relatively good for what ails us and is historically known as a healthy spirit. The tonic water I knew so well used to be therapeutic because it had contained quinine but most tonic waters are made with a lot of sugar these days so buyer beware. I made a twist on my old friend that is pretty great – an Elderflower Gin & Tonic.

Fentimans Sparkling Wild English Elderflower Soda is the ideal accompaniment to the long standing, beloved British beverage. Low in calories and made from juniper berries which are good for the digestion, gin actually originated in Holland. Produced at the oldest distillery in Holland, Nolet’s Silver Gin is extra spectacular because it contains no carbs. This superior spirit is also NON GMO Project certified and sugar free too. If like me you are a gin connoisseur, then you should most certainly please check out my Winter Blues Gin Cocktail as well. Serve alongside Granny’s Deviled Eggs – any good host would.
