You might notice how much corn syrup/sugar is now added to store-bought tonic water. I have no doubt (but no proof) that this has increased over time. So that could be why you find them more palatable now.

Went the other way, for me. I used to love tonic water, neat, but it's gotten to be so sweet that it's unenjoyable.
