About
The Gin and Tonic, affectionately known as G&T, is one of the most iconic and easy-to-make cocktails in the world. It was originally created by the British East India Company in the 19th century as a way to make quinine, used to combat malaria, more palatable. The combination of bitter tonic water and botanically rich gin quickly became a cultural staple. Today, the Gin and Tonic is enjoyed for its simplicity and versatility. Served over ice in a highball glass, it can be customized with various garnishes like lime, lemon, or herbs, making it as sophisticated or casual as desired.
