Obviously I'm not just tossing tonic in 'em. Any suggestions are welcome.
If you have more of a floral-forward gin, like Hendricks, a gin fizz is nice.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I dislike gin, so I have nothing to offer here.

I was making my own lime cordial for a while there because of all the gimlet discussion here back when. Gin spritz, Sophia? Ooh, you could try that True Lime stuff - it’s so good in Diet Coke, might be good with gin

Now, where can I get True Lime that isn’t Amazon? Because I suddenly feel like I should be sprinkling some on or in everything I consume

In bizarre work news - our head of IT is leaving and the department is going to report to my grand boss?? WTF? I mean, IT used to be under HR so I guess having it run by Supply Chain isn’t much weirder than that, but it’s still pretty weird

In bizarre work news
That is odd, and seems stop-gap?
Also, I can get TurLime at the grocery store (I haven't looked at Aldi or Lidl, but at, like, Harris Teeter.)
