Featuring Juno, our velvet hippo.
This made 2.
4 oz gin (Farmer’s)
6 oz grapefruit juice
1 oz Campari
1 oz lime
8 oz tonic (fever tree light tonic, la mejor)
Stirred with ice, strained over fresh ice with one lime wedge squeezed in and put in. A little watery, the grapefruit maybe not quite perfect but it’s good.
Because the fever tree comes in weird sized bottles, there was left over so I made a gin & tonic for my daughter’s girlfriend. She did not like it but a splash of St. Germain fixed it for her.


She is like a black hole, so much mass for her size. Our other dog is both taller and longer but they weigh the same amount.
And yes they were good - I don’t generally like gin but somehow gin & tonic is better than anything else & tonic.
