Gin

Description:

Gin is a distilled spirit flavored with juniper and other botanicals. It is made by distilling or infusing neutral spirit with herbs, spices, roots, and citrus peel. Gin quickly brings juniper, citrus peel, roots, and spice from its botanical mix into a cocktail. That makes it especially useful in dry, sour, and carbonated drinks where aroma should be clear without feeling heavy. With gin, keep the leading botanical in mind: some bottles lean into juniper, others into citrus, flowers, or spice. Martinis and Gin and Tonics reveal those differences quickly.
