summer drink recipe - gin and tonic vanilla float
Me and my housemate once again find ourselves pushing the boundaries of sensible and delicious food and beverage.
Gin and Tonic Vanilla float
1 large measure of gin
half a glass of tonic
1 large scoop of vanilla icecream
1 cinnamon stick
Pour gin, then tonic into a highball glass. Add the ice cream, and half heartedly mix it using a cinnamon stick. Serve.
Eating technique (Standard European method for any float - Coke, 7up, etc):
Spend the first couple of minutes eating the foam and icecream using a spoon, and direct-to-mouth. After enough icecream has melted, slurp the now mixed/melting drink direct-to-mouth, through the foam. The slurping, combined with the foam bubbles, brings extra oxygen into the drink, which makes it tastier and more refreshing.

this prototype version is pictured with a lime, which is incorrect.
