Bombay Dry was $3 less, so it won out. I remember there being a debate between the two varieties, and couldn't remember the winner.

Usually I use Canada Dry's tonic water because it's usually the one I see, I haven't tried different ones otherwise. My dad was a fan of Grapefruit Juice and Gin apparently or vodka I forget which it was, I took some of his Izzy Grapefruit drinks and mixed it, was pretty good though it overpowered the gin a bit.
If you have a gin you really like, it can be really nice with just a few ice cubes. I know not everybody's all about Tanqueray's flavor compared to something smoother like Bombay Sapphire, but I dig Tanq on the rocks.
This is not something I'd do with Gordon's, Booth's or Gilbey's, mind you.
Canada Dry doesn't make ginger ale. They make bland sugar water. Try Reed's sometime.Quote:

Sometimes if I'm going to drink at someone else's house and i don't want to be cutting up limes there, I'll grab tonic water infused with lemon juice. It works pretty well but still doesn't come close to an actual citrus wedge in it.
I enjoy a nice Gin Buck from time to time (Gin, Ginger Ale & Lime), preferably with a nice Reed's Ginger Ale, not the pepsi/coke bullshit.
Usually I stick with the cheap stuff, Gordon's for the most part because I'm a cheap ass. But when I splurge I buy Blue Coat, a local PA Gin, which is just fantastic.
I am drunk as fuck from real gin and real citrus wedges and real white wine. Goddamn motherfuckers what the fuck.
Edit: And it's not that I had too much to drink; it's that I had just a little bit more than just enough.
I went through a whole small bottle of gin last night and ended up vomitting :( I don't even know why I felt fine, it was a weird night and I feel terrible about it.
Gin always creeps up on me like that, I usually feel fine too... I thought it was just me.
I was passed out on her bathroom floor vomitting into the toilet haha. She apparently had to vomit into the sink too, she felt like shit all day :( Her period started so Period + Hangover = :/.
Valentines day was awesome, but today sucked hardcore.
