So far I prefer the Hendrick's over the Bombay Sapphire but have yet to try the Tanqueray. Looks like I've got a reason to pour a cocktail tonight! All in the name of research, of course. I squeeze half a lime in and it tastes just like a non-sweet limeade. Yum. I've been mixing with Schweppes but curious if you have any other tonic water you'd recommend trying out? I might drive over to Homegoods or World Market and see if I can find some fancy looking bottles. I'm a sucker for a good label.
Also, how pretty are those hand stamped cocktail napkins? I bought a set of four from my girl Emily last year. She is crazy talented and I am hoping she lists more for sale before Christmas. They'd make a great gift. She creates the most awesome hand stamped chinoiserie inspired goodies.
We spent the entire summer at the pool and I loved it. I grew up swimming and pictures of the water always intrigue me. I love this modern take on that. Y'all know I love photography as well and I just can't get enough of Minted's photography art prints. Check out a few more of my favorites below.

try fever-tree premium indian tonic water, it's amazing, you'll never go back! we also like hendrick's and tonic with a grapefruit squeeze/wedge, instead of lime - really refreshing!
ReplyDeleteSounds so good! Where do you get that brand of tonic water?
Deleteour local (dc) liquor store carries it, but looks like you can order on amazon prime: http://www.amazon.com/Fever-Tree-Premium-Indian-6-8-Ounce-Bottles/dp/B001XUO8AY/ref=sr_1_1?rps=1&ie=UTF8&qid=1442257728&sr=8-1&keywords=fever+tree+indian+tonic
DeleteDitto the fever tree and try G'Vine gin!

ReplyDeleteWhere is that frame from!? I love it!
ReplyDeleteMinted! You can the prints framed or not!
DeleteAh love that print! And love that Minted herringbone frame. Looks great :)
ReplyDeleteLove me a gin and tonic! I love all you girls with young ones with your alcohol on full display. Just wait till you have teens and you are keeping it under lock and key! Yep, that's where I am. Oh, and I am also where my righteous teens start telling me how many glasses of wine or gin and tonics I have had……..I blame them.

Ahh! Yes, score one for the littles who happily tell me to have some more coffee or wine at every turn like a magic elixir that will fix all....oh wait! Now, when I go to pour a drink one day and it's water I will immediately lock that shit up and call my parents to apologize #circleoflife ha!!
DeleteGlad you're on the gin and tonic train! Beefeaters is a classic and has always been my favorite since that's what my grandparents drank every night before dinner. A routine I sometimes follow!
ReplyDeleteOnce you go Hendrick's, it's hard to go back!
ReplyDeleteI also vote for Fever Tree. You can get elderflower tonic on Amazon - so delish. Also, I like St. George gin. Bevmo carries a small 3 pack taster, I prefer the Botanivore of the three. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteLove this get away spot. What size print did you use over your "bar cart.?"
