Pour Vodka and Gin over ice, add Tonic and Stir

Strong Classic

The AT&T is a simple and refreshing highball that combines vodka and gin over ice, topped with tonic water for a bubbly, bittersweet finish. At 10.4% ABV, it is a lighter take on the gin and tonic, with the addition of vodka adding neutral spirit strength without altering the flavor profile significantly. The tonic water's quinine bitterness and effervescence make it the dominant flavor alongside the gin's botanicals.

History & Origins

The AT&T cocktail takes its name from the American telecommunications corporation, likely coined as a bar joke referencing a connection between two spirits — vodka and gin — just as the company connected telephone networks. Its origin is disputed, and it belongs to the informal tradition of bar-culture named cocktails with humorous references rather than a documented inventor. The combination of gin and vodka with tonic became popular in the 1980s and 1990s.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Light juniper and botanical notes from the gin, with the clean neutral scent of vodka and the slightly medicinal quinine of tonic water. Palate: Refreshing and effervescent; the gin's botanicals integrate with the neutral vodka while the tonic provides bitter-sweetness and carbonation. Finish: Clean and moderately bitter, with a lasting quinine note.

Pro Tip

Add the tonic water last, pouring gently down the side of the glass to preserve maximum carbonation.
