Ah, the G&T—a cocktail so iconic, it practically wears a crown. If there were a Hall of Fame for cocktails, it would be right up there. Learn how to Make the Perfect Non-Alcoholic G&T: A Refreshing, Booze-Free Classic.

Believe it or not, the Gin & Tonic wasn’t always the go-to drink for summer soirées and Sunday brunches. It actually started as a kind of boozy survival strategy! Back in the 19th century, British soldiers stationed in India faced a daunting enemy: malaria. The only thing standing between them and a feverish fate was quinine, a bitter medicine that tasted like it was cooked up by the world’s worst chef.

So, what did they do? They turned to their trusty supply of gin, of course! By mixing quinine with gin, water, sugar, and a squeeze of lime, they managed to turn their bitter medicine into a drink that didn’t just fight malaria—it made the whole ordeal a lot more enjoyable. In fact, this accidental cocktail was so good that it quickly became a daily ritual, and before long, the Gin & Tonic was the toast of the Empire.

Fast forward to today, and the Gin & Tonic has evolved from a malaria-busting concoction to a global favorite. Whether you’re sipping the classic version or a non-alcoholic G&T, just remember—you’re drinking history.
