Key Highlights

  1. A Gin and Tonic stands out for its simplicity and distinctive flavour profile
  2. Gin and Tonic finds its roots in India and was made popular by the British East India Co.
  3. Since then Gin and Tonic has seen innumerable variations worth exploring

There are many different kinds of cocktails, but the classic Gin ‘N’ Tonic is loved by many and has always been a favourite, and rightly so for its simple yet unique flavour. It’s also what many bartenders and mixologists believe makes it unique. “A Gin and Tonic stands out for its simplicity and distinctive flavour profile, blending the herbal notes of gin with the crispness of tonic water and a splash of citrus. Its iconic taste and refreshing character set it apart from little complex cocktails on the menu,” shares Garrimella Vishwanath Venkat, mixologist at Napoli by Shatranj.
