Schweppes
Classic mixer company
Schweppes is a brand of carbonated beverages, best known for its tonic water and ginger ale.
Founded in the late 18th century, it became synonymous with mixers for alcoholic drinks, particularly gin and tonic.
The name often appears in contexts involving cocktails or sophisticated refreshments: I'll have a gin and Schweppes.
The brand has become so established that people sometimes use it generically to refer to tonic water regardless of actual brand.
