Preparation

1. Prepare the Glass

Fill a highball glass with ice cubes to chill it while you prepare the drink.

2. Muddle Juniper Berries

In a separate glass or cocktail shaker, add the juniper berries. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the juniper berries to release their oils and flavor.

3. Add Gin

Pour 2 oz of gin over the muddled juniper berries and stir gently to combine the flavors.

4. Squeeze Lime Juice

Cut the lime in half. Squeeze the juice from one half into the gin and juniper mixture, stirring to combine. Reserve the other half for garnish.

5. Combine with Tonic Water

Strain the gin and juniper mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice. Slowly pour 4 oz of tonic water over the mixture to avoid excessive fizzing.

Garnishing

6. Add Mint and Lime Wedge

Garnish the drink with 5 fresh mint leaves and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass for added aroma and visual appeal.
