Love gin, love tonic, but the word moist has always made me absolutely cringe, so therefore I shall stick to what I know.
How shallow am I?

Nordic Mist with a couple of cardamom pods: Devine.

😂

The blurb states 'the mist is lovingly gathered on early autumn mornings in the remote Scandinavian countryside, in a symbiotic relationship with cardamom pods, gathered by hand from the warm moist forests of India. Specially selected for you to enjoy with your favourite gin'.

Sounds very exotic petra.

Fever tree for me too but like Schweppes it has got expensive and as I only like half a can in a double, it is wasteful.
Today I was in Waitrose and saw their own brand at a very reasonable price
I will report when I have tried it.

I like Fentimans if it's with gin.
More complex but not overwhelming.

I’m a fevertree fan too .

Another Fever tree fan.

I like the Aldi one. Can’t tell the difference between that and fevertree, so a win, win. Also can’t tell,the difference between Aldi gin and Gordon’s. 😃

I prefer Fever Tree too.

I like Fever Tree. Hope you get your ‘fizz’ back! 😊 🥂

I buy fevertree tonic. I find it does the fizz

What has happened to Schweppes tonic water, where’s the damn fizz gone, been buying these for ever, so expensive, but hey ho, £5 now for box of mini cans, to be honest, they’re now flat as a fart!
So tell me you gin lovers, what’s your fave tonic, I’m looking for non flavoured, just want a decent fizz that hits ne in the back of the throat……
