Strong and refreshing.

Gin and tonic originated in the British and Indian wars, British soldiers took quinine water (tonic water) to ward off malaria, but at that time the quinine water was difficult to swallow the mouth, so they came up with the idea of adding gin and lime juice and mixing it to make it tasty, and over time the gin and tonic has become popular.

Today, in order to meet the tastes of the market, the quinine content in tonic water is not so high anymore, so it loses its medicinal properties. The symbolism in the bar is because it was one of the most disease-preventing beverages with medicinal value, and it also contains the symbolism of blessing others with good health in the bar.
