Mixers tested with this Gin
-
Interesting
Goldberg Japanese Yuzu Tonic
An intriguing mix of fruity and bitter notes. The gin shapes the tonic rather than the other way round. Not bad, though.
-
-
Easy-drinking citrus
Goldberg Mediterranean Tonic
I like this combination. It's citrus-led and spicy at the same time, and lovely with ice. Probably my favourite.
-
-
Pure bitterness
Goldberg Tonic Water
If you want a really bracing Gin and Tonic, this is the one. The tonic heads straight for the bitter end of the spectrum. Don't worry, though: citrus follows close behind.
-
-
Nope
Goldberg Ginger Ale
Unfortunately, this isn't a match. It's just sweet, with the ginger ale only becoming faintly apparent right at the end. The gin takes an unpleasant aromatic turn. Somehow, no.
-
-
Grapefruit pith
Fever-Tree Indian Tonic Water
This is a really unpleasant combination. The gin pushes the tonic in an extremely bitter direction, like chewing the inside of a grapefruit peel. And it's incredibly sweet.

-
Don't mix this
Windspiel Tonic Water
Another one that won't make the cut. Bitter notes and a few botanicals come through in an unpleasant combination. A wild mix that's wrong from A to Y.

Who let the herbs out?
Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic Water
Few gins push Mediterranean tonic into the background. Here, the herbal character suddenly moves ahead of the tonic. In this combination, though, it isn't so unpleasant.

-
Dry and furry
Mistelhain Trend Tonic
The tonic is naturally fruity and juicy, but the gin adds a furry note to the flavour. It's like having a rabbit in your mouth. Thoroughly dry.
-
-
Juicy
Doctor Polidori Dry Tonic Water
Not the world's best combination, but definitely mixable. Sweet and juicy, with a little lemon and a hint of bitterness.
-
-
Tough cucumber
Doctor Polidori Cucumber Tonic Water
Worth a go. The sweetness only becomes clear after a moment. At first, it's a bracing, bitter, cucumber-heavy mix. Worth trying.

-
Never have I ever
Mistelhain Ambition Tonic
The tonic is very intense, but this makes an interesting mix. The gin steers it in quite a good direction. Juicy, but a little rough-edged, too.
