Tanqueray

Premium British spirit

Tanqueray is a brand of gin, recognizable by its green bottle and associated with premium cocktails.

The name appears frequently in hip-hop lyrics and bar orders: Tanqueray and tonic, sipping on some Tanqueray.

Like Hennessy for cognac, Tanqueray often stands in for gin generally in casual speech.
