However, I usually order red wine. We have a bring your own wine Italian place nearby and red wine is what I take.

I do like a good gin and tonic, and I also like plain tonic and lime. I used to go to big parties and order a G & T then spend the rest of the evening with plain tonic.and lime.
Folks thought I was a serious drinker too because they thought I was still drinking it with the gin!
