Londoners can get a free drink to celebrate International Gin & Tonic Day.
Campari, Italy’s iconic red bittersweet apéritif, is partnering with some of the top bars in London to offer you the chance to sample a Milanese G&T, on the house, on Thursday (October 19).
The Milanese G&T is a sophisticated Italian take on the British classic – adding Campari to the traditional gin and tonic.
The iconic bitter drink was invented by Gaspare Campari in Milan in 1860.
