GIN TONIC?

This is interesting (not curious, Spanish people use curious too much) because when I first came to Spain gin was just starting to become a more popular drink and now through recent market research gin is now one of the most fashionable (not fashion, fashion is just for clothes) drinks around.

The reason why I am highlighting this drink is because I noticed very quickly that Spanish people say: “Gin tonic” which to be honest is fine but it might be interesting for you to know that in the UK we say: Gin AND tonic. The thing is that we often say it so fast that it sounds like this: “Gin n Tonic”.

So remember if you really want to sound like a native speaker you have to order your drink saying: “Can I have a gin n' tonic, please?” Hope that helps!

Thanks once more, Daniel

Your post are really interesting since they focus on usual mistakes of spanish natives.

Just a question related to this post. Is it the same grammatical structure for any other drink?

For instance : "Can I have a Jameson and coke, please?"

Once again, thank you.

Manuel
