Place ice cubes in a cocktail glass
Grab a nice and presentable cocktail glass and put 4 ice cubes in it. Make sure that the ice cubes are nicely frozen and you take them straight out of the freezer just before putting them in the glass. The cooler they are, the lesser they will dilute in the drink and will keep it cold for a longer time.
Most of the experts recommend that you put tonic water in the cube tray before freezing, and then use these tonic cubes for your Gin and Tonic. -
