By replacing sugar with honey in their flavourful tonic waters Buzbee’s have found that perfect balance between low-calorie in-take and maximum deliciousness!

We sent both their Botanical Tonic Water and their Passion Fruit Tonic Water in our March 2020 Gin of the Month box and have been so inspired to keep up their low-calorie trend. So we wanted to share with you these three bee-utiful low-calorie gin drinks!

The Classic G&T with Cucumber Garnish

Cucumber is the ultimate low-calorie way to add a fresh bouquet to your gin and tonic. It works so well with Buzbee’s Botanical Tonic Water!

Ingredients

50ml gin (Ludlow Elderflower, Chamomile and Lemon Verbena works exceptionally well here, those floral notes play wonderfully with the fresh cucumber)
200ml Buzbee’s Botanical Tonic Water
cucumber, to garnish (slices or ribbens work just as well)

Method

Add the gin then the tonic to your glass full of ice before garnishing with the cucumber. Enjoy!

Gin Mojito

This refreshing low-calorie gin mojito will transport you to tropical shores!

Ingredients

50ml gin (we recommend La Republica Amazonica Gin for this for herbal majesty)
1 tbsp of honey
mint leaves, small handful
lime wedges
Buzbee’s Botanical Tonic Water, to top

Method

Muddle the honey, mint leaves (leaving some to one side for garnish), lime and gin in the bottom of a rocks glass. Top up the glass with ice and then pour over the tonic water. Garnish with with mint leaves.

Passion Fruit Gin Ricky

Often hailed as the skinny gin and tonic, the Gin Ricky is a delicious low calorie cocktail!

Ingredient

50ml gin (Six Bells Gin goes wonderfully here for its citrus notes)
1 tbsp of lime juice
Buzbee’s Passion Fruit Tonic Water, to top
rosemary, to garnish

Method

Fill your glass with ice and pour over gin and lime juice. Top up with the tonic water and garnish with a sprig of rosemary.
