Spinneys have plastic bottles of imported schwepps that will accompany your Tanqueray Ten.

or try Heimi Henderson's exploding tonic water

God bless Heimi Henderson.
Living above an off-license, what could be better?
Living in one?
You're right. We must become a lot more friendly with Heimi Henderson.

Spinneys, my local Co-op in B2B carries Schwepps in cans and bottles.

Best tonic though is Fevertree - simply delicious, especially if you have Millers Gin. Shame you cant get either here. Fevertree does fab tonics, ginger beer, bitter lemon etc etc.

My mistake it's MMI apparently - in any case it's the Khalidiya one near the Emirates Palace end of the Corniche, next to the big petrol station.

I think its just a Spinneys - MMI is only in Dubai I believe. Abu Dhabi has Spinneys, GMP and A&E.
