World Gin Day: Lemongrass-Ginger and Cucumber-Lime Gin Infusions

[caption id="attachment_379" align="alignright" width="200"]Logo from World Gin Day (worldginday.com) Logo from World Gin Day (worldginday.com)[/caption] Not to turn my back on bourbon, which many know is a favorite spirit of mine, but the Gin and Tonic is one of my absolute favorite drinks. For World Gin Day, I'm excited to share recipes for two gin infusions that are perfect choices to use in my favorite cocktail. I tend to stick with other herbs and spices or citrus when I infuse gin because it's already herbal to begin with; it's not neutral and open to most ingredients, like its cousin vodka. In this case, cucumber-lime and lemongrass-ginger are two flavor pairings that really work well and I enjoy drinking in a Gin and Tonic.
