To drink gin n lemonade instead of tonic?

[Heckneck]

Just that really..

Yes to gin and pink lemonade.

Gin and COKE though? Tried that once at a party when the nice mixers had run out. It tastes like washing up liquid.

I am mad keen on red vermouth and coke, incidentally. Surprisingly delicious.

I drink it with lime and lemonade

Red vermouth and coke is bloody delicious
I always get odd comments from bar staff though

Gin with lemon Fanta is very popular in Spain

YANBU, tonic is rank.
I used to think I disliked gin, but having taken part in a neat gin tasting, I realised it is rather lovely, it's the tonic I dislike.

I sometimes switch to lemonade after a few G&Ts as it can get too bitter after a while. I'm sure there are gin snobs (the kind who dismissed it as something their nan drank until it became trendy) who'd be aghast, but it's not their shilling.

Another vote for elderflower. I often have tonic with elderflower cordial if I'm driving. When I'm drinking gin I don't bother with the cordial but it does go very nicely. Or try 1724 tonic, it's completely different to standard tonic and quite sweet. In the end though drink what you enjoy. Personally I can't stand whisky!

Gin and rose lemonade is lovely. I also have just bought some strawberry gin which is delicious with lemonade.

If you like it go for it.
I drink lemonade with certain flavoured gins- I had a spiced orange gin with lemonade last night and that was awesome.
If I was going for a standard gin then I'd have it with a decent tonic but that's just my preference.
The only thing I hate with it is Schweppes tonic (although I know many like it) because I think the tonic is overpowering and not very nice. Most supermarket tonics are ok but prefer fentimens or fevertree if I have a choice.

Elderflower is quite nice with gin, so is 7up, a bit trashy that, but drinkable. Tonic water makes me retch

Hate G and T 🤢
G and bitter lemon is Ok

Will definitely try it with lemonade
Not a big wine 🍷 fan unless it’s mixed with lemonade
And much too middle class old to drink vodka 😂

Shame WKD is the bomb

I think that lots of the poncy tonics you can buy now are a lot sweeter than traditional tonic water. That means you can look sophisticated while actually heading towards alcopop territory. I’d happily include myself as one of them, I much prefer sweet alcoholic drinks and love gin and tonic.

It’s like fruit ciders
They are essentially just expensive, socially acceptable alcopops

I miss Reefs 😂

Just no. Decent gin with a good tonic is the drink of the Gods. Lemonade would make it into a student, overly sweet prink. Not suitable for adults.

YABVU...lovely lovely quinine. Although there must have been some basis behind Snoop Dogg's vote for Gin and juice.

Gin and lemonade (posh stuff like San Pellegrino, or lemon fanta at least, not the clear stuff) is called a Pomada so YANBU.

I prefer G&T but a pomada is also very nice.

Or Lidl sometimes do a bitter orange that is very nice with gin. If I don't have any of that, I sometimes have gin with a mix of orange juice and tonic.

Have it with bitter lemon. Much nicer than lemonade.

My grandmother always drank Gin and ginger beer and she lived to 96, in her own home to the end. I think she may have been slightly pickled.

Gin and lemon tonic. Or Sicilian lemonade.

Or elderflower cordial and soda

Rose lemonade is good

That’s what my student DD calls a Gimonade! She drinks it as lemonade is cheaper than tonic. She doesn’t like vodka at all and much prefers gin with her lemonade.

Pomade
It's the drink of the gods
Spent many an hour in menorca drinking that

Yanbu

I call it a poorman's Tom Collins.
