Vodka and gin, poured over ice and topped with tonic water, make up the AT&T, a lighter variation on the familiar gin and tonic. The addition of vodka contributes neutral spirit strength without substantially altering the flavor, so the gin's botanicals and the tonic's quinine bitterness remain the dominant notes. Stirred and served in a highball glass, the drink reaches roughly 10 percent alcohol by volume. Its effervescence and bittersweet finish come from the tonic, which carries the cocktail while the two base spirits supply the underlying backbone.

Ingredientes

- Gin 1 oz
- Tonic water 4 oz
Instruções
Pour Vodka and Gin over ice, add Tonic and Stir
O AT&T é um highball simples e refrescante que combina vodka e gim sobre gelo, finalizado com água tônica para um toque borbulhante e amargo-doce. A 10,4% ABV, é uma versão mais leve do gin tônico, com a vodka adicionando força de destilado neutro sem alterar significativamente o perfil de sabor.
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.
