The Perfect Gin & Tonic

A refreshing classic, elevated by crystal-clear ice

The Gin & Tonic is one of the world’s most iconic mixed drinks — clean, crisp and endlessly versatile. With the right proportions, quality ingredients and one long crystal-clear ice spear, it becomes a refined serve that stays colder for longer and looks as good as it tastes.

Ingredients

• 50 ml gin
• 100–150 ml premium tonic water
• 1 fresh lime wedge or slice
• 1 Velour Ice Spear

Method

Fill a chilled highball glass with one crystal-clear Velour Ice Spear.
Pour in the gin.
Top with chilled tonic water.
Gently stir once or twice to combine.
Garnish with a lime wedge or slice.

The perfect ice

A long crystal-clear ice spear is ideal for a Gin & Tonic. It keeps the drink cold while slowing dilution, helping the botanicals in the gin and the freshness of the tonic remain clean and balanced. It also creates a sleek, elevated presentation that suits a premium serve.

Why it works

The beauty of a great Gin & Tonic lies in its simplicity. Because there are so few ingredients, every detail matters — from the choice of gin to the temperature of the tonic and the quality of the ice. A crystal-clear spear adds both visual elegance and practical performance, making the drink feel more refined from the very first sip.
