Depending on circumstances:
- Post gardening or lunch times = a light beer
- Weekend evenings G&T plus maybe a scotch at bed time
- Dining out a robust red wine

My favorite drink after a busy day is a gin tonic ... preferably Monkey 47 ![[Linked Image]](https://tm-img.com/images/2025/05/25/IMG_3877.md.jpeg)

PS Simon you mention ginger beer and some of us will remember parents carefully tending ginger beer plants and splitting them for friends …….like sourdough.(?)
Try Bundaberg my fav ginger beer, vodka and Limoncello, makes a great Moscow (f**k**s) Mule - MM my signature cocktail.at my daughters summer festival wedding Mike, I favour Bundaberg and, if I can't get that, Fentimans in second place. Will try your suggestion! My go to is a spiced rum (there are so many excellent ones), with Bundaberg and a good squeeze of lime (2 parts rum to 5 parts ginger beer). Clemens, Monkey 47 is excellent. Have you tried any of James May's Gins? I have to say his Asian Parsnip gin is excellent and for winter, California Dreamgin. Despite the name and reference to California, the girolle mushroom undertone tastes a little like a hint of pine to me, hence feeling more wintery.

Any scrumpy. Old Peculier. My home-made cider. Bob, my first hangover was on homemade scrumpy and I can still recall the feeling, many decades later!   ...I still do love a cider, so it can't have been that bad!

Simon I must confess, I have never tried James May Gin. So that's another item on my must-try list 😀 So far, my favorite gin is Monkez 47 with Fentimans Tonic, then Beefeater and finally the classic Hendriks.

Definitely the G&T on a warm summer evening - red wine with dinner and occasionally a fine malt whisky although there is a problem - one malt gives me very vivid, sometimes nightmarish, dreams - two or more, no problem!! So problem solved!

I used to have terrible dreams after drinking, but eventually realised that it didn't happen if I took my nightly atorvastatin at least an hour before starting on the booze.

Definitely the G&T on a warm summer evening The Queen Mother's favourite: Warner Edwards Rhubarb gin, with a dash of tonic, fresh grapefruit juice and a lot of ice is a very nice summer drink.

Think I prefer taking the second wee dram to changing my statin routine!!
