Good mixers to go with Gin?

Also, bring back /al/ck

"is Beer Food? ... In fact, it should be considered one of the major food groups. Here are some reasons why: Of course beer is a beverage, as the majority of its composition is water; however, given that it's also made with cereal grains, hops and yeast, all of this combined goodness is oftentimes a meal in itself."

That's cuz you're a faggot.
Its basically a cross between juice made with carbonated water, and a soda with 2/3 of the sugar of an average soda.
I sometimes did vodka and seltzer water cuz least calorie option, but you black the fuck out cuz your blood sugar bottoms out while consuming alcohol with no mixer.
