Katie is #6 – Conncullin Gin + Fever Tree Mediterranean Tonic

13 Delicious Gin and Tonics to Try Right Now

Conncullin Gin and Fever Tree Mediterranean Tonic

This Mediterranean Gin & Tonic appropriately matches Fever Tree’s Mediterranean Tonic with Conncullin gin, adding more herbality with the addition of fresh thyme. “I paired the Conncullin gin with that tonic because it’s very herbaceous, which pairs beautifully with the berry botanicals of the gin,” says Katie M. Loeb, a Philadelphia-based mixologist. “The garnish is so you can smell the thyme as you raise the glass toward your nose. It’s super refreshing and a burst of fresh springtime scents and flavors.”
