Hudnott’s and Tonic

Ingredients

25ml Hudnott’s

250ml tonic water

Ice

Method

Add Hudnott’s to a tall glass with ice and top up with tonic water.

This deliciously refreshing drink is one of the easiest ways to enjoy your favourite Hudnott’s.

Tonic water was conceived as a means of making quinine powder — a known malaria preventative — more palatable to British soldiers stationed in India in the 19th century. The soldiers soon realized adding gin to the mix improved things significantly. “The gin and tonic has saved more Englishmen’s lives, and minds, than all the doctors in the Empire,” Winston Churchill said years later.
