Gin can be excellent in mixed drinks, in my estimation. I'm more of a Scotch guy, though.

I prefer vodka with tonic. 
Recently I decided to switch to see if maybe I would like gin instead. (I thought I liked them both equally.) I've only finished about a quarter of the bottle, but no, I still prefer vodka. Of course I could try some different brands I suppose. But then again, I think gin gives me a headache the next day.

I prefer vodka with tonic.
And it tastes like pine needles.

It tastes pretty good, and it's a racist term for indigenous Australian women.

gin & tonic is my favourite mixed drink. It's delicious and you don't get nasty sugar breath or gut rot. Yum

Love Gin. Hendrick's, specifically. But really, even whatever crap they have on tap at a bar is still pretty good (unlike shit vodkas or whiskeys).
I've been wanting to cure salmon in it. I think the pine-y flavor would be great with salmon.

This has never occurred to me before. Sounds like a solid idea
I was thinking a tiny bit of maple syrup with it wouldn't hurt either.
I've got to get on this.

If you are turned off by the taste of gin in a mixed GNT, I recommend substituting and having a GNT with lemon instead of lime. It kind of balances out.
One thing is for sure, if gin is giving you a headache definitely go for Tanqueray or Sapphire. Not the kind of hard liquer you want to skimp on and go for the Gordon's London Dry.

I actually enjoyed the one I made tonight. I put more lime juice in than I had before and it was pretty good. The brand I have is Beefeater. Hopefully no headache tomorrow!
