2. Cut the lime in half and then cut one half into slices, reserving these for garnish.
3. With a spoon, stir the ice for a few seconds to cool the glass.
4. Remove the water that has been generated.
5. Squeeze half a lime over the ice.
6. Add Matraca gin.
7. Add the botanicals of your choice.
8. Swirl 2 or 3 times with the spoon so that the botanicals mix with the gin and ices.
9. Pour the tonic water. If you have an imperial spoon, pour the water little by little over it. If not, pour the water little by little over the ice until the glass is ¾ full.
10. Insert the spoon in the center and all the way down and move it a couple of times up and down so that the gin and tonic mix a little but without breaking the bubbles.
