Capri Sun Tropical Punch is a surprisingly worthy match for gin in this quirky, easy-drinking cocktail. Angostura bitters balance the sweetness, as does light tonic water.
(Our recipe calls for mixing and pouring into a rocks glass, but feel free to mix yours right in the pouch.)

¾ ounce gin
3 ounces Tropical Punch (approximately half a pouch!)
2 ounces light tonic water, such as Q Mixers
4 to 5 shakes Angostura bitters
Directions
Combine all ingredients except tonic water in a cocktail mixing glass and stir.
