Nothing washes the blues away like a good-spirited drink, quite literally! If you’re someone who knows their liquor, you’re probably aware that mixers matter!
We’re so focused on sourcing the finest spirits; what brand does it best? What notes does the drink emanate? What botanicals are used? While all this matters, the key to enjoying your spirits to the utmost relies on the tonic you mix it with. With gin and tonic emerging as the latest cult favourite in India, we are swooping in to experiment with our tonic choices in order to find a signature variety we can call our own.
Catering to an experimentative mixology movement sweeping the country, there’s an exciting number of tonic brands dominating supermarket shelves.
We bring you a quick roundup of Indian tonic brands that will upgrade your G&T game.
I. Sepoy and Co.
Delhi based Sepoy and Co. is regarded as one of the most popular tonic brands offering an eclectic flavour selection that spans spiced grapefruit, mint, and the classic Indian tonic water. Setting a benchmark in the beverage industry, the brand’s unique crafting approach has been awarded the international taste award as well. If you’re on the lookout for some summer cocktail recipes, we suggest checking out their website for some artisanal mixology hacks.
