    Chill the Glass

    Place your serving glass (highball or cocktail glass) in the freezer or fill it with ice water to chill while preparing the cocktail.

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of gin, 1 oz of elderflower liqueur, and 0.5 oz of fresh lemon juice.

    Fill the cocktail shaker with ice cubes (about 1 cup) and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Remove the ice water from the serving glass if using, and strain the mixture from the shaker into the glass.

  5. 5

    Top with Tonic

    Slowly pour 4 oz of tonic water over the cocktail to top it off. This will add a refreshing fizz.
