Start by pouring 2 ounces of gin into a glass.

Add 4 ounces of tonic water to about halfway of the glass.

Top with ice and stir with a straw.

Garnish with a lime wedge on the side.

Squeeze the lime to add flavor and offset the sweetness of the tonic water.

For an elevated version, replace some gin with 1 ounce of Luxardo.

Add 4 ounces of tonic water to the glass.

Top with ice and garnish with peeled cucumber, a sprinkle of salt, and fresh crushed pepper.

For a European style, use a wine glass and add a flavored gin, such as basil and elderflower.

Add 1 ounce of charot to the glass.

Layer in ice and add edible flowers and cucumber ribbons for garnish.

Finish with 1/4 ounce of lime juice, a sprinkle of salt, and fresh pepper.
