This cocktail can be found at the Boutique Bar at the recently inaugurated five-star Ohla Hotel, serving excellent cocktails in an elegant, intimate atmosphere. The team, led by Giuseppe Santamaria and Max La Rocca, specialize in creating their own cocktails, as well serving up high-quality classics and variations.

And Tanqueray, no stranger to cocktail trends, recently launched a line called Tea Tonic, an array of teas designed to accompany its quadruple-distilled No. Ten premium gin. Choose from their flavors of tea – Juniper, Spices, Fresh Citrus, Chamomile or Balance – place the teabag in a glass with ice, add gin, steep for one minute and then add the tonic. Teatime was never so exciting.
