What Makes It Uncommon

Party Like It's 1919

What's in a bottle of tonic water? Sure, there's quinine, but there's also gross stuff—like high fructose corn syrup. Collective shudder. When flavor buff Tory Pratt learned what horrors lurked within the modern mixer, she set out to do a little research on how the OG drink was made. Years later, these delectable pre-prohibition-style syrups are the fruits of her labor.

Try her tonic with gin and a splash of club soda for a fresher take on a classic, complete with fragrant citrusy notes. The grenadine, made with real pomegranate, makes a vibrant addition to Tequila Sunrises, and a little of her rich, caramelly take on a simple syrup goes a long way. (One bottle of the dark, double-simmered elixir holds enough to make 32 Old Fashioneds.) Lovers of history and booze alike will appreciate Tory's exhaustive research. After all, the results are tasty. Made in small batches in Washington, DC.

When Tory Pratt was just a wee babe, her mom, a caterer, devised a clever game for them to play. First, she'd give Tory a spoonful of mystery food. (Hmm... sounds ominous.) If Tory could identify all the ingredients, she'd win $5. With a palate like that, is it any wonder that she's now spent years perfecting recipes for cocktail syrups inspired by the past? We say no, and thank goodness for that: 47 iterations later, her tonic is a delight. Speaking of, we'll take a G&T.
