DOUBLE DUTCH LAUNCHES RIVIERA TONIC WATER

A Taste of the Riviera, All Year Round

Premium mixer brand Double Dutch is bringing a taste of the Mediterranean to the on-trade with the launch of Riviera Tonic Water – a light, botanical blend of aromatic thyme, rosemary, bittersweet wormwood and zesty lemon.

Crafted to meet the growing demand for Mediterranean-inspired serves in premium hospitality, Riviera Tonic Water brings sophistication and coastal flavour to menus all year round.

Inspired by sunlit coastlines and the art of slow, indulgent sipping, Riviera Tonic Water has been crafted to transport drinkers straight to the Riviera from wherever they are in the world. From coastal cocktails on the terrace to a beach party GCT, it’s a mixer designed to deliver

sunshine in a sip, any day of the year.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Zesty lemon leads, layered with fresh thyme and coastal herbs and a hint of wormwood.
Palate: Bold citrus brightness, lifted by herbal thyme and grounded with a hint of bittersweet wormwood. Balanced quinine keeps it unmistakably Double Dutch.
Finish: Clean, dry, and refreshing, with a lingering lemon-thyme harmony.

Designed for hospitality: Built on the crisp, award-winning base of Double Dutch’s Indian Tonic Water, Riviera Tonic Water offers bartenders a versatile, premium mixer that works with all classic dry gins, especially citrus-forward or herbaceous styles, coastal spritzes and creative no/low cocktails. Its layered profile makes it a natural choice for memorable, menu- worthy drinks.

Best served twinning: Serve in a spritz glass over ice with a citrus-forward or herbaceous gin, garnished with a sprig of thyme and a lemon wheel. Alternatively, mix with a white vermouth for a fresh, botanical twist or try the unexpected delights of pairing with the likes of limoncello, a rosé aperitivo or even Tequila or Scotch.

“Riviera Tonic is about capturing that golden-hour feeling – bright, refreshing, and full of character. We wanted to create a mixer that delivers that sense of escape in every serve,” says Raissa and Joyce de Haas, Co-Founders C CEOs of Double Dutch.

The launch of Riviera Tonic Water comes as Double Dutch celebrates its 10th birthday and continues to strengthen its presence in premium hospitality venues across the UK and globally. The brand has just unveiled a new bespoke bottle design, featuring lightweight glass and vibrant labels that reflect Double Dutch’s bold personality while supporting its sustainability commitments.
