Strawberry Thyme gin and tonic with fresh lime

Ok...new drink

Here is the recipe

Take 2-3 twigs of fresh thyme and remove the leaves from the stems
combine with the below ingredients before you muddle.

**Muddle: is to crush with a spoon or an actual muddler I recommend a wooden one

Muddle 4 slices of lime
2-3 fresh chopped strawberries

w/ a teaspoon of sugar along with the thyme

Add and and ounce and half of your fav Gin
Shake in a shaker with a few cubes of ice
Poor mixture into a glass ( do not strain it..you want the chunks)
Add more ice and top the drink with tonic
Garnish with a whole strawberry and twig of Thyme.

Enjoy!
You can make this in bulk as well...but don't add the ice or tonic till you are going to serve it. It will bruise (water down) the alcohol. :)
