You unpack your Christmas presents and, by the way, find the perfect bottle of gin and don't know what to do with it. I know we're not all gin and tonic people, but the good news is that making a wide variety of gin drinks is easier than you think.

In fact, there are plenty of drinks in the world that use gin as an ingredient for you to explore and fall in love with. Nowadays you can also order gin lovers hamper whenever you want.

Let's face it; gin is one of the most underrated drinks out there. A variety of really tempting gin cocktails can be made at home without the fuss, whether you're planning a romantic weekend or attracting a few friends over the weekend.

However, I suspect that once you figure out what to sign with the magic bottle your cousin gave you, you'll most likely get greedy and polish it yourself.

If you feel lazy, just leave it on the rocks with a few olives. Would you like to add a little scurvy? Add 1 1/2 ounces to a tall glass and fill with a Sprite or Image box. Do you want your poison to bear fruit?

Eat it with cranberry juice and lots of ice. In short, the possibilities are endless and by the time you finish your bottle you will probably be ready to buy another one to continue your experiments with gin mixes.
