Choose a four-pack if four individual portions fit your lunches, but check what is inside: Ocado lists Fever-Tree Classic Mojito Cocktail Mixer as four 150ml cans, while an Amazon UK listing identifies Fentimans Connoisseurs Tonic as four 200ml bottles. The Mojito product is a flavoured cocktail mixer, not a standard tonic. If tonic is what you want and a larger pack is practical, compare the pack count, sugars per 100ml and any sweeteners before choosing.
An individual can lets you take one portion to lunch without opening a larger bottle. Fever-Tree describes its cans as suitable for drinking on the go; check the flavour and pack count if you intend to drink the mixer on its own.
A four-pack can suit four planned lunches or a shared break, but it need not contain cans. Ocado lists Fever-Tree Classic Mojito Cocktail Mixer in four 150ml cans; an Amazon UK listing identifies Fentimans Connoisseurs Tonic in four 200ml bottles.
The drink type matters as much as the pack format. Waitrose & Partners lists 8.0g sugars per 100ml for Fever-Tree Indian Tonic Water, while Ocado lists 0g sugars per 100ml for Schweppes Slimline Tonic Water, which contains aspartame.
Start with the drink you want at lunch, then check whether its container size and pack count fit the portions you plan to carry.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Portions and containers | Read the pack count, volume per container and whether the drink comes in cans or bottles. Ocado lists the Fever-Tree Mojito mixer as 4 × 150ml cans; an Amazon UK listing identifies the Fentimans tonic as 4 × 200ml bottles. | I want four portions I can take to lunch individually, and I need to know whether bottles or cans work for my journey. |
| Drink type | Check whether the product is a flavoured cocktail mixer or tonic water. Ocado describes Fever-Tree Classic Mojito as a non-alcoholic, concentrated flavoured cocktail mixer; Fentimans describes its Connoisseurs product as a botanical tonic. | For a lunchtime soft drink, I want to choose between a lime-and-mint cocktail-mixer flavour and the taste of tonic, rather than relying on the word “mixer”. |
| Sugars | Compare the same per-100ml measure, then consider how much you will drink. Ocado lists 12.7g sugars per 100ml for Fever-Tree Classic Mojito Mixer and 0g for Schweppes Slimline; Waitrose & Partners lists 8.0g for Fever-Tree Indian Tonic Water. | I want the nutrition panel to tell me what is in my chosen portion, particularly when switching between a cocktail mixer, standard tonic and slimline tonic. |
| Ingredients and sweeteners | Read the ingredients and any warnings on the current pack. Ocado lists aspartame in Schweppes Slimline Tonic Water and a warning that it contains a source of phenylalanine. | “No sugar” alone does not answer my question if I also need to check which sweetener the tonic contains. |
| Pack size beyond four | Check how many unopened portions you can store and use. Tesco Groceries lists tonic examples in 6-, 8-, 12- and 15-can formats; those listings do not turn them into four-packs. | If I regularly take tonic to lunch, a larger multipack may fit my plans. If I only want four drinks, I would rather confirm the count before ordering. |
Ocado lists Fever-Tree Classic Mojito Mixer as 4 × 150ml cans, whereas an Amazon UK listing identifies Fentimans Connoisseurs Tonic as 4 × 200ml bottles. They differ in both container and portion size.

Ocado lists Fever-Tree Classic Mojito Cocktail Mixer in four 150ml cans, while an Amazon UK listing identifies Fentimans Connoisseurs Tonic in four 200ml bottles. Check the individual listing for the container type and current pack details: one is a flavoured cocktail mixer and the other is tonic.
No. Ocado describes the mixer itself as non-alcoholic, carbonated and concentrated. It is a flavoured cocktail mixer rather than standard bitter tonic, so check its serving instructions if you plan to drink it with lunch.
