Here, a fino sherry — that's the lightest, driest kind, fresh and crisp like a white wine — serves as a refreshing but complex base.

Tonic pairs well with so many spirits, but it's also a great companion for lower-ABV bottles, like a good sherry. (Tio Pepe is excellent and widely available.) Stir the two ingredients together, add a few garnishes, and you're done. About half as boozy as a glass of wine, it makes for ideal day-drinking.
