The Man from Schweppes - Copy
The man from Schweppes is here
(copy)
Meet Commander
Edward Whitehead,
Schweppesman
Extraordinary from
London, England, where
the house of Schweppes
has been a great
institution since 1794.
Commander Whitehead
has come to these United
States to make sure that
every drop of Schweppes
Quinine Water bottled
here has the original
flavor which has long
made Schweppes
the only mixer for and
authentic Gin-and-Tonic.
He imports the original
Schweppes elixir, and the
secret of Schweppes
unique carbonation is
locked in his brief case.
"Schweppervescence, "
says the Commander,
"lasts the whole drink
through. "
It took Schweppes almost
a hundred years to bring
the flavor of their Quinine
Water to its
present bittersweet
perfection. But it will take
you only thirty seconds to
mix it with ice and gin in a
high ball glass. Then,
gentle reader, you will
bless the day you read
these words.
P.S. If your favorite store
or bardoesn1 yet have
Schweppes, drop a card
to us and we'll make the
proper arrangements.
Address Schweppes, 30
East 60th Street, New
York City.
