GIN AND TONIC
This refreshing summer cocktail for a crowd came to The Times by way of Toby Cecchini, a bartender and the inventor of the once ubiquitous cosmopolitan cocktail. This recipe originated with his father, Andrea Cecchini, a research chemist who "brought his scrutiny to bear on cocktails." A few things the senior Mr. Cecchini would insist upon here: Use a pitcher because proportion is crucial, and you need plenty of room for the ice, tonic and limes. The limes should be room temperature. The tonic chilled, and the ice cracked, preferably by hand. Of course, do what you can, and if you want to make a single cocktail, simply divide the amounts by four (use the juice of one lime per cocktail and have another on hand for garnish). Toby likes to use Tanqueray for "its punchy botanicals and authority; it is 94 proof to the more common 80, making it cantankerous in a martini, but perfect for a G and T."

Steps:
- Knead 4 of the limes on a cutting board, then juice. Slice used rinds into thin strips.
- In large pitcher, combine gin and rinds, and muddle for two minutes. Add lime juice, and let stand for five minutes.
- Fill pitcher halfway with ice. Slowly add tonic. Mix carefully, and pour into tall, chilled highball glasses. Garnish with lime rounds cut from the remaining lime.
THE BEST GIN AND TONIC
The best gin and tonic is all in the technique, because the most important ingredient in a G&T is not really the gin, or even the tonic. It's carbonation.

- Berry skewers. While plenty of people stick a lemon or lime wedge on the rim of their gin and tonic glass and call it a day, other true gin fanatics garnish their drink with a handful of fresh berries.
- Cheese plate. If you ask us, a party isn't complete without a good cheese plate. While wine might be the beverage that initially comes to mind when you think about pairing a beverage with a cheese plate, we promise that when you pick the right cheeses, a gin and tonic works just as well.
- Cured meats. Something about cured meats makes any party feel a little more special. Prosciutto, salami, and chorizo are all delicious options to have on offer for your non-vegetarian guests.
- Salted nuts. There's a reason why bars often serve salted nuts alongside cocktails — and you should take a page out of their books the next time you're trying to decide what to serve at a party or special gathering.
- Shrimp cocktail. If you're serving gin and tonics at your party, you're already working to curate a classy, elegant atmosphere (at least in terms of beverages).
