Jamie's here to show you how to put together his ULTIMATE Gin & Tonic in celebration of World Gin Day, using Bombay Sapphire gin, tonic water, lime and plenty of ice. It sounds simple, but there are so many ways to elevate this drink above the average G&T you might have had before. It's an ideal drink for summer (and spring, autumn and winter...). Created in partnership with Bacardi.

This is of course a tried and true and even subtle preparation of a classic long cocktail. I like the addition of the mint sprig too. Even the shape of the glass appeals to me (I had a fantastic G&T served to me in an identical receptacle at a Heston Blumenthal eatery). My own personal perfect G&T involves a descent gin (naturally), Fever Tree's Elderflower Tonic and a slice of kiwi. Utterly divine.

For me, the best gin and tonic is 2 oz (60 ml) Beefeater, 4-5 oz Schweppes, topped with a lemon slice. I prefer lemon to lime because (1) I work at the produce section in a supermarket, and I juice limes all day for guacamole and pico de gallo. I got so tired of the smell of juiced limes that every lime smells like Skittles now to me. (2) Limes go brown before I can use them up. Bombay Sapphire is definitely a favorite, but more of a "special occasion" gin owing to its price.

Im a big fan of gin, I drink them straight, and actually Bombay is an excellent choice. Delicate but has an understated intensity, a good choice if you like the citrus notes, a bit of pepper, and warm sweet spices. Its strong spiciness doesnt linger long in a G&T though, so thats 1 to you. Ive tasted quite a lot of less well-known gins, and still both Bombay and Tanqueray are fantastic - though the more robust Tanq, as 'the twit' quite rightly says, may suit lemon more.

It's an acquired taste for some. Cranberry and Gin works well though.

Thanks Jamie. Came here looking for Gin and Tonic information and found some nice tips. In particular, rolling the lime. Cooling the glass with the ice (then removing the melted water). And the mint leaf I'll have to try.
