In the classification of alcoholic (and even non-alcoholic) drinks, this group occupies a rather large place, since it includes numerous tinctures, mostly bitter: vermouth and liqueurs, low-alcohol products with a strength of 5% or more and some other types of drinks. Bitters are herbal drinks (spicy ingredients, extracts of roots, stems, leaves of plants considered medicinal), produced by infusion. Many components are used as raw materials. The bitter recipe for each famous brand is kept in the strictest confidence. The word itself comes from German and literally means "bitter".
In the modern culture of alcohol, this is the name for a fairly wide range of drinks, the strength of which varies from 5 to 50%. This grandiose circle includes such well-known Russian consumers as “Riga Balsam (black)”, “Campari”, “Becherovka”, even “Zubrovka” and honey and pepper tincture.
Even in ancient times in some countries there was a certain practice of using bitterness in the preparation of tinctures and other drinks containing (and not even containing) alcohol. The first bitters are an ancient Greek bitter wine, used by Hippocrates himself exclusively for medicinal purposes, the prototype of today's vermouth. Or the Nubian version of a bitter beer. Some other drinks of the ancients can be conditionally recognized as bitters, especially if we take into account their described healing properties.
But the most powerful development of such drinks begins in the Middle Ages with the appearance in Europe of the "water of life" - ethyl distillate (approximately in the 12th century, and the method of its production was borrowed from the Arabs).
The broadest horizons for creating bitterness open up for fans of such drinks due to the discovery of the properties of American plants. For example, this is how the legendary "Angostura" appeared, which is present in every respectable bar today. And thanks to their qualities (they quenched their thirst well, disinfected them), bitters became for the European settlers of the United States one of the elements of the drinking diet. However, bitters are still the assortment of pharmacies.
In drinking establishments and restaurants, alcohol-based bitterness began to appear only in the 19th century. Thus, the famous Italian "Campari" became the first bitter drink that was focused on the restaurant business (1861). From Italy, the fashion for bitterness began to spread throughout the world to dozens of countries.
This reddish brown bitter has its roots in Venezuela. It is concentrated and thick, often used in the art of bartenders all over the world. Its recipe has been kept secret for almost 200 years, and the alcoholic strength is almost 45 degrees. Like many other bitters, Angostura from its birth (1824) was first used as a medicinal tincture. The main production of Angostura is located in Trinidad and Tobago. Bitter is the main or complementary ingredient for many famous cocktails due to its very pleasant and original aftertaste.
Italian bitter liqueur with a strength of 20 to 28% in various variations. It is obtained from herbs and fruits. Campari is still the most famous drink today. Popular as an aperitif, consumed independently, and as an invariable component of many, many cocktails, "Americano", "Garibaldi" for example. The liqueur began its triumphant march in 1861 from Italy to France. And today it is supplied to 200 countries of the world. Connoisseurs say that in the taste and aroma you can feel the notes of honey and zest, blackberries and grapes, quinine. According to some reports (the original recipe is still kept secret by the manufacturer), Campari contains more than 50 ingredients.
Until recently, this strong black bitter was one of the most famous in the USSR and then in the CIS. At least it was even sold in the shops of the Soviet republics, and the average layman could put a bottle in a bar. Buyers note that balsam "Rizhsky" has an excellent strength (45%) and density, rich color and rich taste. There are notes of linden blossom, raspberries and lingonberries, ginger bitterness (24 ingredients in total). Produced in original ceramic bottles, which are designed to protect the contents from exposure to sunlight. This drink has been known in Europe since 1752. It is practically not used in its pure form. They are added to coffee (most popular in Russia), tea, ice cream. Used with ice in some cocktails. Balsam-bitter is still used as a medicine for some diseases, so to speak, for its intended purpose.
Is it added to the cocktail? Bitter is most commonly used in beverage mixes in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. This component gives cocktails a special bitterness, originality and uniqueness in taste and aroma characteristics. In general, for connoisseurs.
It is a refreshing drink (non-alcoholic). It is made using a special technology that allows you to use squeezed lemon juice along with the zest (hence the characteristic bitterness). The technology is classified, so the full composition of the drink is unknown. In the world culture of consumption, "Schweppes bitter" is mainly used in cocktails. Judging by consumer reviews, many people in Russia are accustomed to drinking it like a regular soda, without mixing it with anything.
Of course, the culture of bitters consumption in our country is not yet at the highest level. Many consider the cocktail to be sheer pampering and a waste of money. However, the club and bar culture with its variety of drinks, which include various bitterness, is gaining popularity in Russia in recent years.

Schweppes Bitter Lemon is a refreshing drink with lemon juice added. It is made according to a special technology using lemon juice together with zest, which gives the drink an exquisite bitter taste.
Lemon rind particles form a natural sediment at the bottom of the bottle. In order to feel the fullness of the taste of the drink, it must be "awakened". In this regard, the ritual of consumption of Schweppes was born:

On May 1, 1957, the Schweppes Bitter Lemon hit the UK shelves. The sales of this refreshing drink have grown at a very fast pace. Since then, the drink has become widespread throughout the world.
The history of Bitter Lemon begins in 1956, when the Schweppes marketing team in the UK, inspired by the then existing Schweppes Indian Tonic with Quinine *, began work on a new bitter lemon-flavored beverage.
In Russia, Schweppes Bitter Lemon first appeared in 2000.
As of 2013, Bitter Lemon is the most popular Schweppes flavor in Russia, accounting for slightly more than half of the sales volume of the entire Schweppes portfolio. **
The ideal proportion of lemon juice, zest and quinine * preserves the unforgettable bitterness characteristic of Schweppes and gives the drink a spicy, unique, inimitable taste.
In 2013, the Schweppes Bitter Lemon recipe was improved. The drink has become even tastier, and the famous bitterness - even more pronounced. ***

How much does Schweppes cost (average price per liter)?
The Schweppes brand of soft drinks was founded by Schwepp Jakob back in 83 of the 18th century. Today it is owned by the Dr Pepper Snapple Group, a subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company. The drink Schweppes, which is known to have a long and rather interesting history of origin, is popular among consumers in many countries of the world. It is customary to use it not only in its pure form, but also to use it as part of various cocktails.
Today, the assortment of Schweppes drinks, which are produced almost all over the world, ranges from pure carbonated water (under the name Schweppes Soda) to exclusive national brands that are produced only in some countries (for example, Schweppes Cranberry Spice).
So, the modern drink Schweppes is produced in more than one hundred and sixty countries, including in our country, where, according to 2012 data, there are 4 main types on sale.
Schweppes Indian Tonic is a classic of this brand. It was invented during British rule in colonial India. By the way, since 1783, it is this species that has been considered the invariable personification of the drinks of this brand and is an ingredient in gin and tonic - the world's first cocktail.
A refreshing drink containing natural lemon juice - Schweppes Bitter Lemon. It is produced using a special technology that allows you to squeeze the juice of this citrus fruit together with the zest. Nevertheless, Schweppes still owes its exquisite bitter taste to the use of quinine.
An unusual combination of cranberries and spices can be felt in the Schweppes Cranberry Spice. It is noteworthy that this option is produced exclusively in countries such as Russia, Belarus and Ukraine.
In addition, the Turkish version of the Schweppes drink is called Schweppes Mandarine, by the name of which it is easy to guess that it contains mandarin juice.
According to the information on the packaging of this highly carbonated non-alcoholic water, Schweppes contains ingredients such as drinking water, sugar, lemon juice, carbon dioxide, citric acid as an acidity regulator, as well as natural flavors.
In addition, the Schweppes drink contains potassium sorbate as a preservative, ascorbic acid, which plays the role of an antioxidant, stabilizers (in particular, starch ester and sodium octenylate acid salts, esters of resin acids and glycerol), quinine, and sodium saccharinate (sweetener).

The drink from the date of its foundation to the present day is in high demand among consumers. It is of particular interest to buyers under 35 years old. Young people after university are usually already aware of the harm of an intoxicating drink and are trying to replace it with, in their opinion, more benign options.
There are also those who prefer to mix the effervescent contents of a bottle with vodka or any other suitable for flavoring beverages. So it turns out to make yourself a rather simple, but at the same time fragrant cocktail. Moreover, this scheme is used not only by those who are used to creating a budget mojito with their own hands, but also by professional bartenders. In many nightclubs in exotic resorts, the restaurant's menu contains at least one alcoholic mix with the involvement of Schweppes.
This is facilitated by a fairly large assortment of different tastes. The simplest type is called regular soda, which is not supplemented with various colors and flavors. It is a pure carbonated liquid, classified as Soda in the species classification.
But in addition to consumer products, many countries are offering brand owners to use some of the more exclusive flavors. The most prominent representative of such an original group is called Cranberry Spice. It is produced on the territory of only a few countries, so not all fans of the drink will be able to appreciate how delicious cranberries are in this modification.
Today, the composition, loved by many, is produced in one and a half hundred countries. The manufacturer and buyers from the countries of the former Soviet Union did not pass by. On their territory, you can find the main types of drink:
There are some more species that Russian-speaking curious people can taste without any problems. Most often it is Mandarine, which is made for the Turkish public. You can buy a bottle of tangerine liquid in any large store in this country, going there on vacation.
But mandarin or pomegranate is not the traditional classic. This is a version of the Indian tonic, the recipe for which was invented in the distant times of colonial India. Then the British authorities ran everything there. Its distinctive feature is quinine, which gives the finished product its specific aftertaste.
The drink was so popular with customers that they even included it in the world's first cocktail containing alcohol. We are talking about the legendary gin and tonic, which began to be prepared as early as 1783 to the delight of bar-goers.
If the client wants something fresher, then Bitter Lemon is perfect for this. Its composition includes the addition of lemon juice. It is customary to call the special technology the main advantage of a refreshing reading. Thanks to her, specialists can squeeze juice directly from the citrus fruit along with the zest. No gin or any other alcohol is added to the contents of the bottle, but the result is still a little bitter. This effect is provided by the addition of quinine, which guarantees a pleasant bitterness. She, according to reviews, is necessary to suppress the feeling of thirst on hot days.
As for Cranberry Spice, it is produced exclusively in the vastness of three countries:
It is his folk craftsmen who like to mix with various intoxicants. Vodka harmonizes best with it. Sometimes the third component is the martini. Moreover, the proportions can vary somewhat depending on personal preference and endurance, which allows you to quickly digest ethanol.
If you want to make a classic Tropical cocktail with the above ingredients, then it is better to add ice cubes to the shaker before the final mixing, and also quite a bit of syrup. Instead of a purchased analogue, you can make a syrup yourself: you need to stir sugar in a small amount of water. After maximum stirring, the mixture is filtered so that the sugar crystals do not spoil the structure.
Experimenters even manage to pour in pomegranate juice, but bartenders warn that it has outstanding flavor and color characteristics. If you still take such a risk, you can completely neutralize the taste of the soda.
Better to put a thin ginger slice in there when mixing in a shaker, and then just strain the solution.
The manufacturer treats its consumers honestly, therefore, does not hesitate to publish the full composition on the label. Despite the fact that some of its variations are positioned as refreshing, the benefits of even fresh lemon juice are minimal there.
This is explained by the fact that the liquid provides for the addition of several conflicting components and quinine, which is still discussed in the scientific community. From this, some conclude that although Schweppes does not contain ethanol, ale or craft beer will still be more beneficial for the internal organs.
The drink in the international classification belongs to the category of highly carbonated water.
The basic composition for various types of products of a well-known brand includes:
Also, manufacturers do not hide the fact that potassium sorbate is added to the bottles, which is positioned as a preservative. And the presence of ascorbic acid is responsible for antioxidants.
But in addition to relatively understandable substances, the content is capable of boasting a number of chemicals, among which they distinguished themselves:
The latter in the chemical classification goes under the term sodium saccharinate. Also, quinine was not without, which causes concern among doctors.
Many fans of this “fizzy” note that they like it because of the tasteful imitation of an alcoholic cocktail. Cola, familiar to all, can hardly boast of such an achievement.
But in fact, Schweppes does not contain even a small fraction of ethanol, as is the case with traditional power engineers. It does not lead to intoxication, like vermouth or any other intoxicating drink, while the bitter taste creates the illusion of consuming alcohol-containing liquid.
Also, experts are sure that after such a thirst quenching, a person will experience an exciting effect. It is short-lived, but some even have enough of this in order to associate the drunk with alcohol.
Another danger not always recognized by cocktail fans. This applies to the practice of adding alcohol-containing components to Schweppes. Due to the fact that the bitterness of the zest, together with quinine, completely clog the taste of ethanol. Such a development of events leads to the fact that the client of the bar may exceed the recommended dosage of alcohol. But as soon as he gets up from the chair, then everything drunk will immediately hit the head, and it will seem as if the client has seriously gone over it.
That is why it is so important to control the number of cocktail portions, as well as to know what the professionals who know the sense of proportion drink with such soda. The presence of carbon dioxide adds to the problems. Because of it, the rate of absorption of alcohol increases significantly, which provokes the onset of intoxication more pronounced and much faster.
On other issues, the presented drink is not much different from its direct competitors from the non-alcoholic range. The only thing worth highlighting here is the huge amount of sugar. And although its exceeding the recommended dose does not seem to be felt on the tongue, because of the adapted sweetener, much more sugar is added than if sugar was simply poured into the bottle and loosened.
All this guarantees a short-term jump in the rise of energy, which almost instantly goes out, provoking an increased thirst. So only extra calories are added, the level of glucose in the blood jumps, and you don't want to drink less.
Experts say that drinking more than two average bottles of such soda on a daily basis will quickly lead to the development of the following unpleasant symptoms:
Not all Schweppes fans are willing to admit that he is addictive. Even scientific researchers have proven this. If you add to this addiction to cocktails based on it, then after a short period of time even a healthy person can seriously undermine their own health. Not to mention the fact that he will have to go to a drug treatment clinic for professional help. Only experienced doctors will be able to relieve him of his craving for alcoholic cocktails.
Some reckless parents believe that the addition of natural lemon juice allows for a rich vitamin composition. But doctors advise it is better to just give a teenager a small lime on an empty stomach than to offer him a soda.
The increased vitamin B content, which is often found in carbonated sugary drinks, deserves special attention. In general, these vitamins must have a positive effect, but in fact, their excess provokes a weakening of the heart.
Tonic also negatively affect the processes occurring in the digestive tract, which guarantees increased secretion of gastric juice. Usually schoolchildren, who are the main consumers of Schweppes, rarely eat a full meal. Due to this, the chances of bringing your own body to gastritis increases.
You should also not rely too much on an energy explosion and a surge of strength after drinking. They are taken not from the bottle, but from the internal reserves of the body, which the body saves "for a rainy day" to fight during illness or severe stress. Instead of being used in situations where a weakening immunity really needs it, the gold reserve will be spent on ordinary needs or simply for a sense of satisfaction.
To recover the losses, you will have to consume healthy food for a long time, include vitamin supplements in the diet, and monitor your health. If you spend the reserve allocated for diseases on a daily basis, then after a short period of time it will simply become empty. This guarantees a decrease in immunity, depressed mood, as well as internal exhaustion.
But the most dangerous thing about this drink is quinine. It is contraindicated to use it even in small doses for small children, elderly people. Pregnant women and women during lactation are in a special risk group. Fears are caused by the fact that the substance quickly enters the cells of the body, remaining there for a long time.
Also, all those who already suffer from hearing impairments, and also have problems with the functioning of the liver, should stop using Schweppes. This is especially true for those who are faced with hepatitis.
Against the background of all of the above, people are trying to protect themselves and their children from the emerging danger. If you can't drink soda at all, then you should just strictly limit it in quantity.

The non-alcoholic Schweppes drink imitates the taste of alcohol, causes sensations typical of alcoholic intoxication:
The peculiar taste of bitterness, explained by the addition of quinine and lemon zest, masks the alcoholic taste of cocktails, in the preparation of which the drink is more common. The saturation of the liquid with bubbles of carbon dioxide increases the rate of absorption of alcohol, accelerating the onset of intoxication.
The composition of Schweppes differs little from other soft drinks, except for quinine and a large amount of sugar, which gives additional energy and increases thirst on a hot day.
The bitter taste extinguishes the excessively sweet composition of the soda, but does not reduce the harmful effects of the tonic on the body:
Parents of teenagers need to know what their children are drinking. Energy drinks, in which there is not even a drop of alcohol, are not inferior in harmfulness to alcohol consumption, if the amount drunk is not controlled.
German Johann Jakob Schweppes has been developing an alcohol-free drink for 20 years, completely imitating the taste of champagne. So a way was invented to saturate water with carbon dioxide. The first deliveries of sparkling water as a brandy diluent were made in England. Over time, quinine was added to soda to improve the taste of a medicine that protects soldiers in Indian colonies from malaria.
Today, the need for antimalarial treatment has disappeared, but the composition of the promoted drink has not changed, so it is necessary to take into account the contraindications and side effects of the drug:
Of course, Schweppes contains a relatively small dosage of the drug, but in some countries, such as the United States, doctors believe that even at such a small dose, quinine can cause birth defects in babies whose mothers consumed the carbonated drink in excessive doses. The effect of the drug on the adolescent and child's body has not been fully studied, so the principle should be adhered to: "do no harm!" your body.
Mentioning Schweppes, many mean an alcoholic cocktail, and not harmless carbonated water, although there are a lot of non-alcoholic products. Drinks are divided according to the taste preferences of individual nations of the country.
Traditional folk drink, in which there is no alcohol, young people massively use for the preparation of alcohol-containing mixes, causing significant damage to health:
Manufacturers recommend limiting the daily consumption of a carbonated drink to two cans, but during the evening, few people heed these tips. Moreover, when drinking an alcoholic cocktail, it is very difficult to comply with the measure.

Since then, the plant has only expanded and prospered, gaining new fans of its products around the world. The brand has now become part of another company called the Dr Pepper Snapple Group.

What doctors say about alcoholism
Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor Ryzhenkova S.A .:
For many years I have been studying the problem of ALCOHOLISM. It is scary when craving for alcohol destroys a person's life, because of alcohol, families collapse, children lose their fathers, and wives lose husbands. Often it is young people who drink too much, destroying their future and causing irreparable harm to health.
It turns out that a drinking family member can be saved, and this can be done in secret from himself. Today we will talk about the new natural remedy Alcolock, which turned out to be incredibly effective, and also participates in the federal program "Healthy Nation", thanks to which until July 24.(inclusive) the product can be obtained IS FREE!

The increased vitamin B content, which is often found in carbonated sugary drinks, deserves special attention. In general, these vitamins must have a positive effect, but in fact, their excess provokes a weakening of the heart.
Tonic also negatively affect the processes occurring in the digestive tract, which guarantees increased secretion of gastric juice. Usually schoolchildren, who are the main consumers of Schweppes, rarely eat a full meal. Due to this, the chances of bringing your own body to gastritis increases.
You should also not rely too much on an energy explosion and a surge of strength after drinking. They are taken not from the bottle, but from the internal reserves of the body, which the body saves "for a rainy day" to fight during illness or severe stress. Instead of being used in situations where a weakening immunity really needs it, the gold reserve will be spent on ordinary needs or simply for a sense of satisfaction.
To recover the losses, you will have to consume healthy food for a long time, include vitamin supplements in the diet, and monitor your health. If you spend the reserve allocated for diseases on a daily basis, then after a short period of time it will simply become empty. This guarantees a decrease in immunity, a depressed mood, as well as internal exhaustion. Once in winter, he almost froze to death there, because I was so drunk that I could not reach the house, it was lucky that my daughter and I felt that something was wrong, went to the garage, and he was lying near the half-open door. And it was -17 degrees! Somehow they brought him home and steam the bath. Several times an ambulance was called, all the time I thought that this time would be the last ... I thought many times to file for divorce, but I endured everything ...
Everything changed when my daughter let me read one article on the Internet. You cannot imagine how grateful I am to her for that. literally pulled her husband out of the world. He gave up alcohol forever and I am already sure that he will never start drinking again. For the last 2 years, she has been working tirelessly in the country, growing tomatoes, and I sell them on the market. The aunts wonder how I managed to stop my husband from drinking. And he apparently feels guilty for ruining my half of my life, so he works tirelessly, almost carries me in his arms, helps around the house, in general, not a husband, but a sweetheart.
Who wants to wean their relatives to drink or wants to quit drinking himself, take 5 minutes and read it, I'm sure it will help you 100%!
But the most dangerous thing about this drink is quinine. It is contraindicated to use it even in small doses for small children, elderly people. Pregnant women and women during lactation are in a special risk group. Fears are caused by the fact that the substance quickly enters the cells of the body, remaining there for a long time.
Also, all those who already suffer from hearing impairments, and also have problems with the functioning of the liver, should stop using Schweppes. This is especially true for those who are faced with hepatitis.
Against the background of all of the above, people are trying to protect themselves and their children from the emerging danger. If you can't drink soda at all, then you should just strictly limit it in quantity.

Schweppes bitter lemon is one of my favorite drinks. Wherever I find myself, even in the most unfamiliar place, it gives a familiar and familiar feeling. Of all the drinks, it is the most versatile: it can quench your thirst on the hottest day, and of course, you cannot make several dozen alcoholic cocktails without it.
Schweppes Bitter Lemon is a drink with the addition of lemon juice and zest, which gives it a bitter taste and natural sediment.
PRICE: 60r / 0.5L
PACKAGE: Bottle (plastic / glass); Bank (aluminum)
MANUFACTURER: The Coca-Cola Company, Russia
COMPOSITION:
Water, CO2, Lemon juice 2%, acidity regulator citric acid, natural flavors, stabilizers (ester of starch and sodium salt of octenyl succinic acid, esters of glycerin and resin acids), antioxidant ascorbic acid, quinine, beta-carotene dye.
TASTE: sweetened lemon water with a bitter lime flavor.
Schweppes Bitter Lemon appeared in the UK in 1957 as a drink to be mixed with alcohol.
Based on Schweppes Bitter Lemon, you can easily make a low-alcohol cocktail, for which you need not so many ingredients:
COCKTAIL RECIPE: Schweppes vodka
We throw ice at the bottom of the glass, pour 50g of vodka, take a slice of lime, squeeze the juice out of it, put it in the glass. Add a teaspoon of syrup and season with Schweppes Bitter Lemon. For beauty and scent, add 2 mint leaves.
CHERRY:
Summer has come, like every year, and we all will not buy a device for knocking out pits from fresh cherries.
An American site of useful tips came to the rescue, which described how to extract the seeds from cherries using a McFlurry straw and a bottle of Cola.
KNOCKING INSTRUCTIONS:
And so, my recipe for extracting pits from cherries is based on a bottle with a classic neck and a syringe cap. Looking ahead, I will say that with this method we separated a bucket of cherries in half an hour.
You will need a bottle from Schweppes, a new syringe. Remove the cap, and cut off the dead-end part with a knife, at an angle of 35 degrees. You should first make the above cocktail.
To remove the pit from the cherry, you need to put the berry on the neck and, by pressing the truncated cap, knock the pit down. The convenience of the method lies in the absence of splashes (all the juice flows down to the bottom of the bottle)
On "Echo of Moscow" Schweppes dedicated a whole program! And listeners told many interesting stories about this drink: for someone he allows not to fall asleep while driving, someone, having drunk it, gets rid of a headache.
There is an explanation for such phenomena: the main component of the tonic, which gives it a bitterness, is quinine.
"Quinine is an extract from the bark of the cinchona tree with a strong bitter taste, antipyretic and analgesic properties, and has long been the only cure for malaria."
Quinine has side effects that were evident in the early days of making Schweppes. But the manufacturer took into account his mistakes and reduced the amount of quinine, so now the risk of side effects is negligible. For example, I just never had them.
In our family, Schweppes started drinking many years ago. We drink only in summer, very rarely at other times of the year.
I still remember the very first impression of this drink: "Oh my god, yes this is a godsend!"
For thirst quenching, this drink is simply perfect due to its bitter citrus flavor.
Schweppes is like olives or blue cheese... At first, something strange, but then suddenly you begin to understand the trick.
Schweppes is as Renata Litvinova: people either adore or hate. A neutral or calm attitude is practically not found in nature.
Sometimes there are especially strong bouts of thirst. For me, for example, after a shower. I know that it is dangerous to drink (especially something chilled) when the body is steamed, it can get a sore throat. But it's hard to resist - it's such a pleasure to quench your thirst by leaving the bathroom!
And now, when I drink Schweppes in such cases, the sensations are simply divine! Dissolve! You feel as if the whole meaning of your life was to suffer from thirst, and then cuddle up to a glass of this lemonade.
By the way, about lemonade. Schweppes much more like a classic homemade lemonade than, for example, Sprite.
Invigorating effect I also felt "Schwepps" on myself. And instant. The taste itself is such that it seems as if the vision becomes clearer, all the senses are sharpened.
Schweppes Bitter Lemon (manufactured by Coca-Cola) has a twin brother - Evervess Bitter Lemon(manufactured by Pepsi). The compositions are different, but ... I deliberately tried these two drinks in a row - I did not find a difference.
COCKTAILS WITH TONIC
I don’t know delicious cocktails with "Bitter Lemon" - they offer options based on vodka or gin, I don’t like that.
For example, here are the recipes from the Evervess Bitter Lemon packaging:
I think another tonic is more suitable for cocktails - Schweppes Indian tonic... WITH Martini it's crazy delicious!
HOW TO USE THE AMAZING PROPERTY OF SCHWEPPES?
You can't drink a lot of Schweppes! And it is not necessary. In some cases, just a few sips are enough to quench your thirst. What does it do?
Or, for example, you go to an event where you will definitely be thirsty, and drinks are very expensive there. And behind them, again, queues. Again "Schweppes" to help!
An example of the above event would be a music festival.

The drink from the date of its foundation to the present day is in high demand among consumers. It is of particular interest to buyers under 35 years old. Young people after university are usually already aware of the harm of an intoxicating drink and are trying to replace it with, in their opinion, more benign options.
There are also those who prefer to mix the effervescent contents of a bottle with vodka or any other suitable for flavoring beverages. So it turns out to make yourself a rather simple, but at the same time fragrant cocktail. Moreover, this scheme is used not only by those who are used to creating a budget mojito with their own hands, but also by professional bartenders. In many nightclubs in exotic resorts, the restaurant's menu contains at least one alcoholic mix with the involvement of Schweppes.
This is facilitated by a fairly large assortment of different tastes. The simplest type is called regular soda, which is not supplemented with various colors and flavors. It is a pure carbonated liquid, classified as Soda in the species classification.
But in addition to consumer products, many countries are offering brand owners to use some of the more exclusive flavors. The most prominent representative of such an original group is called Cranberry Spice. It is produced on the territory of only a few countries, so not all fans of the drink will be able to appreciate how delicious cranberries are in this modification.
Today, the composition, loved by many, is produced in one and a half hundred countries. The manufacturer and buyers from the countries of the former Soviet Union did not pass by. On their territory, you can find the main types of drink:
There are some more species that Russian-speaking curious people can taste without any problems. Most often it is Mandarine, which is made for the Turkish public. You can buy a bottle of tangerine liquid in any large store in this country, going there on vacation.
But mandarin or pomegranate is not the traditional classic. This is a version of the Indian tonic, the recipe for which was invented in the distant times of colonial India. Then the British authorities ran everything there. Its distinctive feature is quinine, which gives the finished product its specific aftertaste.
The drink was so popular with customers that they even included it in the world's first cocktail containing alcohol. We are talking about the legendary gin and tonic, which began to be prepared as early as 1783 to the delight of bar-goers.
If the client wants something fresher, then Bitter Lemon is perfect for this. Its composition includes the addition of lemon juice. It is customary to call the special technology the main advantage of a refreshing reading. Thanks to her, specialists can squeeze juice directly from the citrus fruit along with the zest. No gin or any other alcohol is added to the contents of the bottle, but the result is still a little bitter. This effect is provided by the addition of quinine, which guarantees a pleasant bitterness. She, according to reviews, is necessary to suppress the feeling of thirst on hot days.
As for Cranberry Spice, it is produced exclusively in the vastness of three countries:
It is his folk craftsmen who like to mix with various intoxicants. Vodka harmonizes best with it. Sometimes the third component is the martini. Moreover, the proportions can vary somewhat depending on personal preference and endurance, which allows you to quickly digest ethanol.
If you want to make a classic Tropical cocktail with the above ingredients, then it is better to add ice cubes to the shaker before the final mixing, and also quite a bit of syrup. Instead of a purchased analogue, you can make a syrup yourself: you need to stir sugar in a small amount of water. After maximum stirring, the mixture is filtered so that the sugar crystals do not spoil the structure.
Experimenters even manage to pour in pomegranate juice, but bartenders warn that it has outstanding flavor and color characteristics. If you still take such a risk, you can completely neutralize the taste of the soda.
Better to put a thin ginger slice in there when mixing in a shaker, and then just strain the solution.
The manufacturer treats its consumers honestly, therefore, does not hesitate to publish the full composition on the label. Despite the fact that some of its variations are positioned as refreshing, the benefits of even fresh lemon juice are minimal there.
This is explained by the fact that the liquid provides for the addition of several conflicting components and quinine, which is still discussed in the scientific community. From this, some conclude that although Schweppes does not contain ethanol, ale or craft beer will still be more beneficial for the internal organs.
The drink in the international classification belongs to the category of highly carbonated water.
The basic composition for various types of products of a well-known brand includes:
Also, manufacturers do not hide the fact that potassium sorbate is added to the bottles, which is positioned as a preservative. And the presence of ascorbic acid is responsible for antioxidants.
But in addition to relatively understandable substances, the content is capable of boasting a number of chemicals, among which they distinguished themselves:
The latter in the chemical classification goes under the term sodium saccharinate. Also, quinine was not without, which causes concern among doctors.
Many fans of this “fizzy” note that they like it because of the tasteful imitation of an alcoholic cocktail. Cola, familiar to all, can hardly boast of such an achievement.
But in fact, Schweppes does not contain even a small fraction of ethanol, as is the case with traditional power engineers. It does not lead to intoxication, like vermouth or any other intoxicating drink, while the bitter taste creates the illusion of consuming alcohol-containing liquid.
Also, experts are sure that after such a thirst quenching, a person will experience an exciting effect. It is short-lived, but some even have enough of this in order to associate the drunk with alcohol.
Another danger not always recognized by cocktail fans. This applies to the practice of adding alcohol-containing components to Schweppes. Due to the fact that the bitterness of the zest, together with quinine, completely clog the taste of ethanol. Such a development of events leads to the fact that the client of the bar may exceed the recommended dosage of alcohol. But as soon as he gets up from the chair, then everything drunk will immediately hit the head, and it will seem as if the client has seriously gone over it.
That is why it is so important to control the number of cocktail portions, as well as to know what the professionals who know the sense of proportion drink with such soda. The presence of carbon dioxide adds to the problems. Because of it, the rate of absorption of alcohol increases significantly, which provokes the onset of intoxication more pronounced and much faster.
On other issues, the presented drink is not much different from its direct competitors from the non-alcoholic range. The only thing worth highlighting here is the huge amount of sugar. And although its exceeding the recommended dose does not seem to be felt on the tongue, because of the adapted sweetener, much more sugar is added than if sugar was simply poured into the bottle and loosened.
All this guarantees a short-term jump in the rise of energy, which almost instantly goes out, provoking an increased thirst. So only extra calories are added, the level of glucose in the blood jumps, and you don't want to drink less.
Experts say that drinking more than two average bottles of such soda on a daily basis will quickly lead to the development of the following unpleasant symptoms:
Not all Schweppes fans are willing to admit that he is addictive. Even scientific researchers have proven this. If you add to this addiction to cocktails based on it, then after a short period of time even a healthy person can seriously undermine their own health. Not to mention the fact that he will have to go to a drug treatment clinic for professional help. Only experienced doctors will be able to relieve him of his craving for alcoholic cocktails.
The increased vitamin B content, which is often found in carbonated sugary drinks, deserves special attention. In general, these vitamins must have a positive effect, but in fact, their excess provokes a weakening of the heart.
Tonic also negatively affect the processes occurring in the digestive tract, which guarantees increased secretion of gastric juice. Usually schoolchildren, who are the main consumers of Schweppes, rarely eat a full meal. Due to this, the chances of bringing your own body to gastritis increases.
You should also not rely too much on an energy explosion and a surge of strength after drinking. They are taken not from the bottle, but from the internal reserves of the body, which the body saves "for a rainy day" to fight during illness or severe stress. Instead of being used in situations where a weakening immunity really needs it, the gold reserve will be spent on ordinary needs or simply for a sense of satisfaction.
To recover the losses, you will have to consume healthy food for a long time, include vitamin supplements in the diet, and monitor your health. If you spend the reserve allocated for diseases on a daily basis, then after a short period of time it will simply become empty. This guarantees a decrease in immunity, depressed mood, as well as internal exhaustion.
But the most dangerous thing about this drink is quinine. It is contraindicated to use it even in small doses for small children, elderly people. Pregnant women and women during lactation are in a special risk group. Fears are caused by the fact that the substance quickly enters the cells of the body, remaining there for a long time.
Also, all those who already suffer from hearing impairments, and also have problems with the functioning of the liver, should stop using Schweppes. This is especially true for those who are faced with hepatitis.
Against the background of all of the above, people are trying to protect themselves and their children from the emerging danger. If you can't drink soda at all, then you should just strictly limit it in quantity.

How much does Schweppes cost (average price per liter)?
The Schweppes brand of soft drinks was founded by Schwepp Jakob back in 83 of the 18th century. Today it is owned by the Dr Pepper Snapple Group, a subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company. The drink Schweppes, which is known to have a long and rather interesting history of origin, is popular among consumers in many countries of the world. It is customary to use it not only in its pure form, but also to use it as part of various cocktails.
Today, the assortment of Schweppes drinks, which are produced almost all over the world, ranges from pure carbonated water (under the name Schweppes Soda) to exclusive national brands that are produced only in some countries (for example, Schweppes Cranberry Spice).
So, the modern drink Schweppes is produced in more than one hundred and sixty countries, including in our country, where, according to 2012 data, there are 4 main types on sale.
Schweppes Indian Tonic is a classic of this brand. It was invented during British rule in colonial India. By the way, since 1783, it is this species that has been considered the invariable personification of the drinks of this brand and is an ingredient in gin and tonic - the world's first cocktail.
A refreshing drink containing natural lemon juice - Schweppes Bitter Lemon. It is produced using a special technology that allows you to squeeze the juice of this citrus fruit together with the zest. Nevertheless, Schweppes still owes its exquisite bitter taste to the use of quinine.
An unusual combination of cranberries and spices can be felt in the Schweppes Cranberry Spice. It is noteworthy that this option is produced exclusively in countries such as Russia, Belarus and Ukraine.
In addition, the Turkish version of the Schweppes drink is called Schweppes Mandarine, by the name of which it is easy to guess that it contains mandarin juice.
According to the information on the packaging of this highly carbonated non-alcoholic water, Schweppes contains ingredients such as drinking water, sugar, lemon juice, carbon dioxide, citric acid as an acidity regulator, as well as natural flavors.
In addition, the Schweppes drink contains potassium sorbate as a preservative, ascorbic acid, which plays the role of an antioxidant, stabilizers (in particular, starch ester and sodium octenylate acid salts, esters of resin acids and glycerol), quinine, and sodium saccharinate (sweetener).

Schweppes is a brand that produces drinks that are sold all over the world. Various sweet sodas are produced under this name, as well as ginger ale.
The history of the emergence of this drink is as follows. At the end of the eighteenth century, Swiss watchmaker Johann Jacob Schweppe developed a process for the production of carbonated mineral waters, based on the discoveries of Joseph Priestley. In 1783 he founded the Schweppes company in Geneva. In 1792 he moved to London to further develop his business. In 1843, drinks were released that are popular with the British royal family to the present day. Schweppes is a drink that has been represented by three types over the years - tonic (the oldest soft drink in the world, first invented in 1771), ginger ale (appeared in 1870), bitter lemon (released in 1957).
In 1969 the Schweppes Company merged with Cadbury. After acquiring a number of other companies in 2008, the company was split, and the beverage production was renamed “Dr. Pepper Snapple Group ", separated from Kraft Foods.
The first advertisement was launched in the 1920s and 1930s. Thus, the artist William Barribal created a number of posters. The advertising campaign in the 1950s and 1960s was carried out by a former British naval officer who put a lot of emphasis on the taste of the product and the large amount of gas.
Another well-known advertising stunt is the connection between the name of the drink and the sound heard when the bottle is opened. The slogan “Schhhhh…. you know what it is ”is used today in many countries in its original or adapted form. In addition, advertising is widespread on the Internet these days, particularly on social media.
Today, this soda is available in a wide variety of flavors. At the same time, three varieties are known in Russia - tonic, bitter lemon and mojito. In previous years, "spicy cranberries" and "wild berries" were widely sold. In many countries, Schweppes has also gained popularity with the classic soda flavor, which is widely used to make alcoholic cocktails.
The Ginger Ale variety of Schweppes is worth mentioning separately. Since ale is a type of beer, some believe that Schweppes is an alcoholic beverage. In fact, this is a regular non-alcoholic soda flavored with ginger extract. Unfortunately, this unusual taste has not spread in Russia. In other countries, it is used not only for its intended purpose - to quench thirst - but also as an ingredient in various cocktails. In a number of countries, it is mixed with ice cream and even used as a marinade.
In some regions, soda is now produced with unique flavors that reflect the national preferences of specific consumers. These include Schweppes with blackberries and vanilla, tomato and other types. In addition, the "Russian" taste is also known abroad, which is often referred to as alcoholic "Schweppes". In fact, this is a berry-flavored soda, from which vodka cocktails are traditionally made.

The non-alcoholic Schweppes drink imitates the taste of alcohol, causes sensations typical of alcoholic intoxication:
The peculiar taste of bitterness, explained by the addition of quinine and lemon zest, masks the alcoholic taste of cocktails, in the preparation of which the drink is more common. The saturation of the liquid with bubbles of carbon dioxide increases the rate of absorption of alcohol, accelerating the onset of intoxication.
The composition of Schweppes differs little from other soft drinks, except for quinine and a large amount of sugar, which gives additional energy and increases thirst on a hot day.
The bitter taste extinguishes the excessively sweet composition of the soda, but does not reduce the harmful effects of the tonic on the body:
Parents of teenagers need to know what their children are drinking. Energy drinks, in which there is not even a drop of alcohol, are not inferior in harmfulness to alcohol consumption, if the amount drunk is not controlled.
German Johann Jakob Schweppes has been developing an alcohol-free drink for 20 years, completely imitating the taste of champagne. So a way was invented to saturate water with carbon dioxide. The first deliveries of sparkling water as a brandy diluent were made in England. Over time, quinine was added to soda to improve the taste of a medicine that protects soldiers in Indian colonies from malaria.
Today, the need for antimalarial treatment has disappeared, but the composition of the promoted drink has not changed, so it is necessary to take into account the contraindications and side effects of the drug:
Of course, Schweppes contains a relatively small dosage of the drug, but in some countries, such as the United States, doctors believe that even at such a small dose, quinine can cause birth defects in babies whose mothers consumed the carbonated drink in excessive doses. The effect of the drug on the adolescent and child's body has not been fully studied, so the principle should be adhered to: "do no harm!" your body.
Mentioning Schweppes, many mean an alcoholic cocktail, and not harmless carbonated water, although there are a lot of non-alcoholic products. Drinks are divided according to the taste preferences of individual nations of the country.
Traditional folk drink, in which there is no alcohol, young people massively use for the preparation of alcohol-containing mixes, causing significant damage to health:
Manufacturers recommend limiting the daily consumption of a carbonated drink to two cans, but during the evening, few people heed these tips. Moreover, when drinking an alcoholic cocktail, it is very difficult to comply with the measure.
