Gin and juice is a fruity cocktail made from gin (preferably of the English brand Tanqueray[1]) and fruit juice, with simple syrup added for additional sweetness.[1]

In popular culture[]

The gin and juice has inspired the popular hip hop song "Gin and Juice" by Snoop Dogg, Snoop Dogg's most-streamed (on Spotify) song from his 1993 debut album Doggystyle.[2][3][4] The lyrics to the song "California Gurls" by Katy Perry has a reference to the drink with the lyrics in question: "Sippin' gin and juice / Laying underneath the palm trees".[5] The lyrics of the song "Hands to Myself", by Selena Gomez, also makes reference to it.[6] Kiss Me More by Doja Cat (feat. SZA) also makes a reference to the drink, "taste breakfast, lunch, and gin and juice". The song "Ballad of Herman Dune (High on Rye & Lost at Sea)" by the group "Herman Dune" also makes reference to the drink: "I use to dream of the LBC. Watching Snoop Dogg in the MTV. Now I miss my youth and I miss my tooth. But I'm cruising and sipping on Gin&Juice".
