Cooper Cocktail

Why was Gin and Tonic invented?

MORE

The Gin and Tonic was invented by the British in the 19th century as a way to make tonic water more palatable. Tonic water was originally used to prevent malaria but it was so bitter that it was difficult to drink. The addition of gin and lime made it much more palatable and turned it into a popular cocktail.

Tonic water was originally created by the British Army or Navy, as a medicinal drink to help fight malaria. The active ingredient in tonic water is quinine which has been shown to be effective in treating the disease. Today tonic water is still consumed for its medicinal benefits although it is also commonly mixed with gin or vodka to create a refreshing cocktail.

A good splash of 7-Up balances the rum`s booziness with gentle effervescence and acidity. Pour everything except the Midori into a tin and shake briefly with ice to chill and combine. Strain over fresh ice and gently pour the melon liqueur overtop. Garnish with a pineapple chunk or maraschino cherry. Fruity and festive, this is sunshine in a glass!
