One can easily feel like an overwhelmed kid in a candy shop when walking into the bottle store.

There are so many options and so many ways to pair the options, that you probably find yourself walking out with that trusty pack of beers more often than going on an enjoyable mixologist adventure.

To make your next trip more adventurous and easy, consider this here nifty pairing guide.

It will help you combine your favourite spirits with the best bespoke mixers in the industry, each with its own unique flavour that complements and boosts the elements of the spirit it gets served with.

The guide demonstrates the variety of flavour combinations that Fitch & Leedes‘ portfolio of premium mixers can offer when paired with specific spirits in each category.

Starting off with the good old classic, Fitch & Leedes Indian Tonic:

This tonic can adapt its flavour to any gin, really, especially a London dry gin, citrus gin, infused gin, an African botanicals gin, or even a floral gin.

Then we have the wildly popular Fitch & Leedes Pink Tonic, which does wonders with the same kinds of gins, but makes for a much prettier cocktail.

If you’re tickled pink by these drinks in the warm-hue part of the spectrum, then the Fitch & Leedes Grapefruit Tonic is also a good mixer:

Pair it with the aforementioned gins, or enjoy it as is, as a non-alcoholic alternative.

For something a little more azure, these three mixers and corresponding spirits are delightful in other, unique ways:

 

That bitter lemon mixed with a tasty rum goes down dangerously well:

If you can’t get to the crystalline blue waters of the Caribbean or Mediterranean, then settle in for a nice full glass of a Fitch & Leedes Blue Tonic cocktail:

Sip enough and you might actually feel like you’re floating in the Indian Ocean in the Maldives.

To snap out of it, you can try the sharp Fitch & Leedes Ginger Ale with a tot of whiskey, rum, gin, or on its own, a true refresher.

Last but certainly not least, the Fitch & Leedes Cheeky Cranberry is best enjoyed with a dash of vodka, rum, cognac, or even gin.

It is also good enough to be consumed on its own as a non-alcoholic beverage.

All of the above bespoke mixers can be ordered online, and you can download the pairing guide as a PDF to refer to whenever you’re a little stumped.
