What is the rule for spacing between words and the character &? For example, do I have to space Espresso&Tonic - Espresso & Tonic, although I am talking about one drink made with an espresso and tonic? Thanks

Treat the ampersand (&) just as any other "word." That should resolve the issue.– KrisAug 3, 2018 at 7:15

If the two subjects in question are separate words or acronyms, then spacing on either end of the ampersand is required.
Examples:
HTML & CSS, an article by the World Wide Web Consortium.
Therefore, Espresso&Tonic is not appropriate. The correct version would be Espresso & Tonic.
