[The gin and tonic] was introduced by the British in India. Tonic water contains quinine, which was used to prevent malaria. Because the tonic water consumed to prevent malaria in the 19th century was extremely bitter, gin was added to make it more palatable. Although there is less medical use today for the consumption of tonic water, the gin and tonic remains a popular drink. Tonic water available today contains less quinine and is consequently less bitter (usually sweetened). Because of this connection to warmer climates and its refreshing nature, this cocktail is more popular during the warmer months.
Lore has it that the sheer enormity of the quantity of limes (for the prevention of scurvy) and quinine (for the aforementioned prevention of malaria), was so unpalatable that the only way to get the members of the British Army to consume the prescribed amount was with the addition of gin.

My wife figured out the same thing. She thinks it's the most racist thing she's seen since Al Sharpton was here a few days ago.SmokeMorePot wrote:SMS Bleeds Blue wrote:[The gin and tonic] was introduced by the British in India.

*Cars can't turn at perfect 90 degree angles.
*The domino that makes up the Domino's Pizza logo is the 2-1 one.
*When the sun comes out, the temperature generally gets hotter outside.
*Rings (as in the jewelry) oftentimes seem smaller in the morning.
*The word "Gnarled" isn't spelled the way you'd imagine it would be.
