I am normally a beer drinker myself, but i have been craving a good gin and tonic myself for a couple of weeks. I guess i will have to break down and buy a bottle, because my local taverns do not carry beefeaters, Tanqueray, or Bombay, and finding a fresh lime can be tough too.

why?? Even in the summer I drink whisky, usually Jameson on the rocks. Jameson is nice, has a bit of sweetness to it, not to expensive, ideal for a summer drink. If I am on white spirits then nothing better than a GnT with Tanqueray.
Dark rum is always in season in our household. Never acquired a taste for gin, but to each his own.

Seasons for alcohol? Not for me. Whatever I fancy, whenever. A cold beer on the porch in December. Gentleman Jack neat in July. Port anytime. Like chosing a cigar -- there's no right or wrong, no season. If it fits the mood, it's the right time and place. Just no dog rockets or rotgut.

I will drink scotch/Whisky right through the summer months. Probably more during the evening hours. However a Jack on the Rocks under the hot sun is tough to beat.
