Spanish Gin Tonics 🌸🥒🍋 are a must make this summer! | #QPartner 21+ 

We like to make beautiful fruit & herb infused ice cubes and then set up a DIY Spanish G&T bar with all sorts of garnishes, good quality gin, and the BEST Q TONIC WATER! The more garnishes, the better! It’s perfect paired with a beautiful charcuterie or a tapas spread for summer entertaining 🙌

If you’re not familiar with the Spanish Gin Tonic, it’s a version of the classic gin & tonic that became popularized in northern Spain in the early 2000s. They’re typically served in a large balloon wine glass and packed with all sorts of botanical garnishes to complement and enhance the flavor of your gin & tonic. 

They’re also truly an art form of their own! This is such a fun idea for a summer gathering – you can make the ice cubes ahead of time and set up a make-your-own Gin Tonic bar with all sorts of garnish options, so people can pick and choose. 

The most important part is to use good quality mixers! We always recommend QMIXERS products for premium quality & ingredients, less sugar and max carbonation. Q TONIC WATER is made with real quinine (this is what makes it bitter) and organic agave, so it’s just subtly sweet. 

If you need to stock up on summer mixers, you can currently get 15% off of Q products on their official Amazon store using the code 15KITCHENQ! #QItUp 

DETAILS ON HOW TO MAKE THESE 👇

The beauty of the Spanish G&T is that you can customize it based on your personal tastes. 

I personally like mine citrus and herb-forward, so I make ice cubes with lemon, lime and grapefruit slices, as well as rosemary, mint, fresh lavender from our garden and juniper berries. 

Other garnish ideas include: other types of fruit (berries, stone fruit, etc), cucumbers, edible flowers, other herbs (basil, thyme, sage, etc), other spices (cinnamon, cloves, star anise, cardamom, etc) and even bitters. 

Once you choose your garnishes, simply add them to a large balloon wine glass with lots of ice, then add in 2 ounces of your favorite gin and 4-6 ounces of Q TONIC WATER. 

Salud! 🥂Let us know if you’re going to try these this summer!
