And you thought running out of oil was a problem...

Bugger me! A summer evening without a G&T!

Quote:

Gin and tonic drinkers may find this summer rather a disappointment - due to a worldwide shortage of lemons.
"By the end of July lemons will have almost completely run out,' said Jeremy Green of Lincolnshire firm Greencell which supplies 33 per cent of the UK's imported lemons.
They will be scarce until September when European lemon crops should be ready.

But G and T is much better with Lime! So I'm alright Jack!

Well that's not a problem - like Lou says, G&T is better with Lime, and not only that in most PROPER cocktail and expensive bars, it comes with Lime as standard as it should do anyway.

Most places just choose to use Lemons as they're cheaper, and more universal for which drinks they suit (eg: anything any coke)

I think we can safely presume the lime crop will sadly have suffered the same fate.

Maybe it's time to drink Hendricks? You're meant to have that with a slice of cucumber :)

I've got an awesome czech spirit with an 'untypable' (never mind pronounceable) name made from sloe berries. Tastes like Gin with a turbo on it. About 55% yet sooooo easy to drink. I usually don't use lemon when I make G&Ts this way, so it should be fine for me. :)
