A strange thread I know...but is anyone else 'addicted' to gin? I'm not sure if it healthy to be in love with this type of gin at my age (23) but I literally cannot get enough of the stuff!
Any other ginaholics on here? :lipsrsealed:
-
Drank it when I was 14 and haven't had a sip since..... :lipsrsealed: :sick: :sick:
-
Like a nice G&T now and again but certainly not addicted.
Have you tried Sloe Gin?
-
Gin, tasteless, how anyone can be addicted is beyond me.

Love the stuff, a good patriotic drink from when we hated the french :grin:
Where I grew up in London we had a few Gin factories nearby, the smell was awesome excpet when it mixed with the tallow smell from prices candles :whistle:

Sloe gin...heard about it. Isn't that meant to be even more depressing on a come down than normal gin? :grin: What do you drink it with?

Gin & lemonade/tonic is so tasty and refreshing IMO.

Yep. It's not so much addictivce, but moreish. Other spirits make me feel sick after a bit, but i've never had that with gin.
Bombay Sapphire, Schweppes tonic, 2 ice cubes and a lovely slice of lemon.
It's like being retired.

exactly this! i cannot drink dark spirits (whisky, JD etc) and voddy sends me loopy. A nice G&T with ice and a slice mmmmmmmm! My mates rip me to shreds if i have one on a night out though!!

^^
On nights out I drink gin and lemonade to make me sound less like I have a bleeding girl thingy! :laugh:
-
I love a good g&t, although it goes down dangerously easily! I usually leave the lemon in each time i refill and put in a new slice, that way I can keep track of how many I've had! Problem is the glass usually ends up full of lemon slices :rolleyes:

+1, never drunk Gin before, but this superb

Tanquery or Hendricks is the only real win here... anything else is mediocre in comparison
Gin should be drunk with lime and good tonic, the gin should be poured over ice to chill the spirit before the addition of tonic to taste.
:evil:

I couldn't agree more. However, try some chopped up strips of cucumber with your Hendricks next time :wink: Give it a good stir and enjoy :smiley:
