About this cocktail

Gin and Ginger Ale is a classic combination. With or without alcohol, this zesty and refreshing cocktail is always a crowd pleaser!

The Simple And Spicy Gin & Ginger Ale

Combining Gin and Ginger Ale creates a simple yet refreshing cocktail that combines the crisp botanicals of gin with the smooth, slightly sweet spice of ginger ale. This highball drink is perfect for casual sipping, whether you're relaxing at home or hosting a gathering. While it may not be as well-known as tonic-based gin drinks, the Gin and Ginger Ale is gaining popularity for its easy preparation, approachable flavour, and versatility with different styles of gin.

To make a classic Gin and Ginger Ale, all you need is a quality gin, chilled ginger ale, and ice. Fill a highball or Collins glass with ice, add gin, then top with ginger ale. A gentle stir is all it takes to blend the flavours. Garnish with a lime wedge or a sprig of fresh mint to enhance the aromatics. The key is to use a good gin that complements the subtle spice of the ginger ale—London Dry gins offer a traditional profile, while citrus-forward or herbaceous gins can add extra layers of flavour. Or, if you going non-alcoholic, our Clean G is always the best option.

The Gin and Ginger Ale is ideal for those who want a lighter, smoother alternative to stronger gin cocktails. It’s also a great entry point for people new to gin, as the ginger ale softens the spirit's sharp edges without masking its character. Whether you're experimenting with different gin brands or just looking for a go-to drink that’s easy to make, this cocktail offers a perfect balance of simplicity and flavour that works in any season.

Make It Without Alcohol

 

Combining our Clean W, alcohol-free Whiskey alternative, with zesty ginger ale and fresh lime, this drink is perfect for those who crave a bit of spice without the hard stuff. It's an easy-going, flavour-packed option that pairs beautifully with casual gatherings or a cozy night in. Raise a glass and enjoy a Clean twist on a classic!
