Gilbey’s Toasts to Real Moments of Connection on World Gin & Tonic Day
This World Gin & Tonic Day, Gilbey’s, Kenya’s most loved gin, is raising a glass to the genuine joys of life, the easy laughter, the true friendships, and the unfiltered moments that matter most. It is a celebration of the beauty found in simplicity.
The celebration falls under Gilbey’s ongoing “Made for Real Moments” campaign, a tribute to the timeless gin and tonic, a crisp and refreshing mix that has brought people together for generations. Just like true connections, a great G&T does not need to be complicated. It only needs to be authentic and easy to enjoy.
“World Gin & Tonic Day is fundamentally about celebrating authenticity. The Gin & Tonic fits every occasion, whether it is a quiet catch-up with a friend or a lively weekend gathering. At Gilbey’s, we champion those genuine, unfiltered moments that bring people closer,” said Lilian Mbugua, Brand Manager for Gilbey’s.
She added, “This commitment to real connection was perfectly captured at our recent Gilbey’s Hangout, where we hosted media and key influencers for an afternoon of games, delicious bites, and perfectly crafted cocktails. The event proved that the best moments are always the most authentic ones.”
To mark the global day, Gilbey’s is taking the celebration online, spotlighting easy-to-make Gin and Tonic recipes across its digital platforms, showing that you do not need a fancy bar to create the perfect drink. Consumers are encouraged to join the conversation and share their own #MadeForRealMoments with friends.
The brand is also partnering with top influencers and skilled mixologists who will showcase their favorite Gilbey’s G&T twists. These collaborations aim to inspire fans to experiment with different garnishes and mixers at home, always enjoyed responsibly.
With its signature crisp citrus flavor and distinct juniper notes, Gilbey’s remains a trusted favorite for those who value quality, affordability, and taste. More than just a drink, it is a celebration of real people, real experiences, and real connections, one sip at a time.
