Japanese Gin & Tonic – A Vibrant Fusion with Conniption American Dry Gin
The Japanese Gin & Tonic is a refreshing and unique cocktail that pairs the crisp botanicals of Conniption American Dry Gin with the sweet, fruity essence of Midori Melon Liqueur and a bright splash of lemon juice. Topped with tonic water and garnished with a striking lotus root slice or a zesty lemon twist, this drink is as visually captivating as it is flavorful.
Conniption American Dry Gin, known for its smooth blend of juniper, orange peel, honeysuckle flowers, and coriander, creates a light yet complex base. The addition of Midori adds a touch of sweetness and vibrant melon flavor, while lemon juice brings a tangy citrus balance. With a bubbly tonic water topper, the Japanese Gin & Tonic offers a crisp and effervescent experience perfect for adventurous cocktail lovers.
