GIN NEWS: Price of a gin and tonic set to rise as mixer costs soar…

GIN NEWS: Price of a gin and tonic set to rise as mixer costs soar…

Gin and tonic with lime

We take mixers seriously at Craft Gin Club, so when we saw the news that popular mixer prices have jumped up at supermarkets according to price data, our immediate thoughts were: this is not the tonic we were after…

To make a delicious G&T, we know that both elements are just as important as each other - the gin (precisely: craft gin!) and tonic both need to be top quality. Simply put, mixers can make or break a ginny tipple!

It’s always been our mission to source the best artisan tonics (and boutique mixers) from all around the world and feature them in our Gin of the Month boxes.

Anyway, let’s cut to the chase (if the headline has got you needing a large G&T): some Schweppes mixers (like their Indian tonic water) have risen by 10p to £1.75 for a litre in Morrisons. And the same goes for Tesco and Sainsbury’s too.

Why, you might ask? With inflation at a high, supermarket prices are sharply increasing because of rising packaging, transport, ingredient and energy costs. Boo!

Similarly, with Fever-Tree tonics, research reveals that since the beginning of 2022, there have been 15 price increases in Morrisons, 16 in Tesco and Asda, and 21 in Sainsbury’s! Yikes… so if you fancy some Fever-Tree: we’ve got some good news:

The Fever-Tree Refreshingly Light Aromatic Tonic Water is currently £4.30 at Sainsbury’s, and £4 on our online shop.

The Fever-Tree Light Clementine Tonic Water is currently £4.30 at Sainsbury’s, and £4 on our online shop.

Remember, Craft Gin Club members get a best price guarantee on our online shop, and we haven’t risen our prices.

If you love the sweet zesty tang of ginger ale, then be sure to check out the gin-credible London Essence Delicate Ginger Ale. Fancy something refreshing with citrus notes and fragrant pine? We love pairing our gin with Navas Garden Tonic. And if tonic isn’t for you, check out these yummy alternatives to tonic that work brilliantly with gin. Cheers to that!
