Crafty Tonic 0.25L(6 Pack)
KShs1,275 incl. of VAT
Unlike standard sugary sodas, Crafty Tonic Premium Indian Tonic Water leans into quinine bitterness, citrus clarity and dry refreshment. It suits customers who want a grown-up soft drink, a mocktail base or a locally produced Kenyan mixer with more structure than ordinary sparkling drinks.
What is the actual difference between this and Commercial Tonics and is it worth the price difference?
Commercial tonics like Schweppes use synthetic quinine flavouring and high fructose corn syrup at industrial scale. Crafty Tonic uses natural quinine at brewhouse scale with no artificial preservatives — the bitterness is cleaner and the carbonation stays more active in the glass.
Does tonic water contain alcohol?
No. Tonic water is a carbonated soft drink. The quinine gives it a bitter taste that some people associate with spirits, but the ABV is 0%.
What gin pairs best with this tonic?
A juniper-forward London Dry gin is the most direct match. The tonic’s dry bitterness amplifies the gin’s botanical structure. Heavily floral or citrus gins also work well. Avoid very light, low-botanical gins where the tonic would overpower rather than complement.
Can I drink this on its own without gin?
Yes. Poured well chilled over ice with a wedge of lime, it works as a standalone non-alcoholic drink. The quinine bitterness gives it more character than soda water and makes it a credible option at a table where others are drinking.
Is this actually made in Nairobi?
Yes. Crafty Tonic is produced at the Crafty Chameleon Brewhouse on James Gichuru Road, Nairobi. The same small batch facility that produces the Crafty Chameleon beer range.
