Gin & tonic

Tonight I made myself a gin and tonic, the first I have tasted. It took some minor arranging: I had picked up tonic water at Lidl, gin in Tesco, then needed to budget some spare calories. I am not much of a fan of gin but very occasionally I have a little to remind myself of its taste. I rather like tonic water though of course the usual modern variety hardly much protects against malaria. In my gin and tonic I could taste both so indeed it tasted much as one might imagine it ought. Curiosity satisfied, it turns out that I am not much of a fan so I shall return to having just the occasional tonic water.
