Welcome to Drinking the World; my thoughts on fine libations, special spirits, and fabulous cocktails. My name is Jonathan M. Forester and I'm a food & beverage writer / consultant, and formerly partner in a winery and brewery in Maine. Now, my new partner and I are currently in the process of starting an artisanal, farm distillery located on 370 acres in New York State called Dutch's Spirits. We will be specializing in premium, hand-made spirits. These will include bourbon, rye, and malt whiskey, peach and apple brandy, a variety of aged rum, gin, liqueurs, and cocktail bitters.

Gin & Ginger Tonic Cooler
By Jonathan M. Forester on Aug 1, 2009 | In Cocktail Revolution, Cocktail Hour (Recipes)
Gin & Ginger Tonic Cooler created by JMForester
2 oz Premium Gin (I used my friend Sonja's North Shore Distillery #6)
3/4 oz Tonic Syrup (see recipe here)
1/2 oz Fever-Tree Ginger Ale
Shake very hard on ice.
Pour all into a Collins glass and top with 3 oz Fever-Tree Ginger Ale.
Add more crushed ice as needed to fill.
Stir gently to mix. Garnish with a lemon twist.
Super refreshing on a warm summers eve.
