Fever-Tree Light Cucumber Tonic Water, 8 x 150ml

Product Information

It will pair particularly well with punchy, herb-heavy gins such as those from Gin Mare and Portobello Road. For those who prefer a more traditional lemony base, go for Schweppes Bitter Lemon Tonic. Bringing the perfect citrus bite, this tonic is superb at uplifting any gin with its brilliantly refreshing zestiness. Fever Tree is one of the most consistent creators of flavored tonic waters on the market today. Their Fever Tree Cucumber Tonic Water is cucumber and tonic perfected. It is slightly sweet, low in calories, and true to the best imaginable expression of the name on the can. The critique that could be made of this is that it may not have enough bitterness and is light on the quinine/tonic water part. However, that shouldn’t deter gin fans for seeking it out. Which juice extractor do you recommend? The Omega Extractor is great depending on your budget, but any extractor will do. While it may not be ground-breaking in itself, Indian Tonic Water provides the perfect opportunity to get creative with your pairings.

Should I drink celery juice and cucumber juice every day? Drinking both juices every day can be very beneficial and healing, and many people enjoy having both. Each juice has unique healing properties that are incredibly useful. However, you don’t have to drink both. It’s a personal decision. I think you can see from my photos that I LOVE a loooot of cucumber in my gin tonic. I just find it a lot more refreshing and exciting. Also, there's nothing better than nibbling on gin-soaked cucumber at the end. But still, Schweppes tonic and Gordon’s gin was how I cut my gin drinking teeth. There’s always a little nostalgia to it. There are also some gins better suited to it than others – even aside from Gordon’s, it works well with more modern spirits, like Hoxton’s Gin (no really, it’s a rather good pairing).

Prep Time

Do my cucumbers have to be organic? It is best to use organic cucumbers if possible. If you use conventional cucumbers, it is important to wash them thoroughly. You can use a natural, fragrance-free dish detergent to remove as much wax and chemicals from the skin as possible. Even organic cucumbers often have wax on the outside, so you may also want to wash your organic cucumbers.

Should I drink cucumber juice before or after my celery juice? It’s best to drink your celery juice on an empty stomach in the morning (or 15 to 30 minutes after lemon water). You can then drink your cucumber juice 15 to 30 minutes after your celery juice or later in the day, away from other foods and drinks. Okay, so maybe it’s not technically a tonic, but we just couldn’t resist tempting you to turn your next G&T into a G&G. A slight citrus note adds depth and keeps the cucumber from being too vegetal. The bitterness in Fever Tree Cucumber Tonic Water is very subtle and very mild. Overall, Fever Tree Cucumber Tonic Water Should I peel cucumbers? No, there are many nutrients in the skin of cucumbers. However, if you buy conventional cucumbers, it is important to wash them thoroughly. You can do the same if the cucumbers are organic but appear to have wax on the outside, which is often the case.Can I just blend the cucumber juice and leave the pulp (fiber)? Cucumber mixed with the pulp is very healthy, but it is the juice without the fiber that offers the greatest therapeutic benefits, so it is important to remove the pulp. I don’t like cucumber. Can I squeeze something else? Even if you don’t like the taste of cucumbers, you might find the mild, slightly sweet taste of cucumber juice quite pleasant. However, pure celery juice is a good alternative to cucumber juice. Each juice has different healing properties and characteristics, but both are incredibly beneficial. Using ginger ale is the perfect way to infuse your drink with a spicy, aromatic touch while still getting the refreshing bubbliness you want from a tonic water. The Japanese Nikka Coffey Gin would make a great pairing with its ultra-zingy flavours of yuzu and shikuwasa.

Gin is a distilled alcoholic drink that revolves around juniper berries as a common ingredient. Gin has early origins in the Middle Ages as herbal medicine, but thanks to marketing, it became a desirable alcoholic drink sold by the spirits industry. Delivering an almost grass-like freshness, Signature Cucumber Tonic Water is the perfect formula for balancing out zesty, fruity gins. Next, fill your chilled glass with ice and pour in1 ½ oz // 4cl // 40 ml Gin. Once you've added your Gin, the rest of your glass can be filled with tonic. And herein lies a bit of a problem. Thethe market has changed. We don’t like flavours quite so sweet and bitter, plus the advent of newer gins, means that when I mention Schweppes, particularly to anyone under 40, faces are pulled. Wash the cucumbers and cut them if necessary. Run the cucumbers through your juicer and drink immediately for best results. If you don’t have a juicer, you can cut the cucumbers, blend them until smooth, then strain the liquid through a fine sieve, cheese cloth, or nut milk bag to keep only the juice to drink.How much cucumber juice should I drink? Drinking between 350 ml to 600 ml (or more) of cucumber juice per day is ideal. It depends on the type of juicer you have and the size of your cucumbers, but in general two large cucumbers yield about 450ml of juice. With its tangy, peppery character, ginger ale is at its best when complimenting equally exotic gins.
