Expert Tips
Glassware Tip
Fill your highball glass with ice before adding ingredients. The tall, narrow shape is designed to keep carbonated mixers fizzy and refreshing throughout the drink.
Fresh Citrus Tip
Always squeeze fresh citrus juice rather than using bottled. Roll the fruit on the counter before cutting to release more juice, and strain out seeds and pulp for a smoother drink.
Hosting Tip

Gin's distinctive flavor comes from juniper berries, though modern gins feature a wide variety of botanicals from around the world.
