Basically what you have here is a hard alcohol replacement to seltzers. Whereas something like Whiteclaw will be made from unspecified malt liquors The Finish Long Drink is proud to announce its base in gin.
Indeed there is the unmistakable scent of juniper berries cheerily mingling with the fresh grapefruit soda. Pine needles and unspecified herbs add a nice decor to the proceedings. But ultimately this is a very uncomplicated drink that's mostly grapefruit soda with just the faintest hints of gin.
That's actually not a detriment to the offering at all. It's an extremely casual, easy sipper with just enough complexity between the grapefruit and gin to keep things interesting without making it a pretentious or portly RTD. I'll admit I prefer the stronger version but if you want something to keep you refreshed while forgetting you're drinking then look no further!
