Adding ice, citrus and gin made the tonic more refreshing and palatable and the citrus also helped prevent scurvy. <strong>While malaria and scurvy aren\u2019t concerns here in Canada, mosquitoes definitely are\u2026<\/strong>so go ahead and enjoy a Gin and Tonic, just to be safe!<\/li>\n<li>Since the 1800s, gin has been the go-to spirit for bartenders, as its botanical flavours add complexity to any cocktail, while balancing perfectly with light summer ingredients.<\/li>\n<li>Many experts would agree that gin is vodka\u2019s worldlier, more interesting older brother. Replacing vodka with BOMBAY SAPPHIRE in summer cocktail favourites such as a Caesar will add a new layer of complexity to your drink.<\/li>\n<li>Gin is globally renowned for being refreshing on a hot day and consumption rates are highest in warm climates like Spain, the world\u2019s number one gin market.<\/li>\n<li>Gin is an aperitif, preparing the palate and stimulating the appetite, and thus every great summer BBQ or dining experience should start with a gin cocktail, like a Negroni.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Mosquitoes aside, it\u2019s no surprise that the classic Gin and Tonic is the number #1 reason on BOMBAY SAPPHIRE EAST\u2019s list, with 65% of the world\u2019s gin enjoyed in a Gin and Tonic*.<\/p>\n<div
