Recommended tonics
1 - Light tonic
Light tonic
With light tonic, it is better to use a more pronounced gin (ex: aged or juniper berry-based gin) but this tonic is suitable for any variety of gin. The light tonics bring the same traditional taste and the same bitterness as the classic tonics but they are lighter in calories thus leaving more room for the dominant flavors present in some gins.
Recommended garnish: Slice of grapefruit or orange.
2 - Cucumber tonic
Cucumber tonic
With cucumber tonic, it is better to use a dry gin. Cucumber tonics bring extra freshness to more traditional gins thanks to the more herbaceous flavors brought by cucumber. These tonics are also often lower in calories (like light tonics).
Recommended garnish: Grapefruit slice.
3 - Classic tonic
Classic tonic
With classic tonic, it is better to use a drier gin (London dry gin) but this tonic is suitable for any variety of gin. The classic tonics are the most usual and they bring a nice bitterness that perfectly complements the taste of all gins.
Recommended garnish: Lemon, grapefruit or cucumber slice.

"ROMEO’S GIN AND WATERMELON A MIGHTY MATCH
Watermelon and cucumber share the same aromatic molecules, as they are both from the cucurbit family. This is where the recipe for romeo’s gin X draws its inspiration. The watermelon distillate, added to romeo’s gin and its aromas of juniper, cucumber, lavender, dill, lemon and almond, make romeo’s gin X a fruity gin, perfectly balanced and deliciously refreshing."
