Does Q tonic water contain quinine?

Answered by Bill Hernandez

Q Tonic does contain quinine. In fact, it is made with real Quinine from Peru. Quinine is a compound that is derived from the bark of the cinchona tree. It has a long history of being used to treat malaria and has also been used as a flavoring agent in tonic water for centuries.

One of the key features of Q Tonic Water is its use of real Quinine from Peru. This sets it apart from many other tonic waters on the market that may use artificial quinine flavoring or lower quality sources of quinine. By using real quinine, Q Tonic Water is able to provide a more authentic and high-quality tonic water experience.

In addition to using real quinine, Q Tonic Water also uses organic agave as a sweetener. This is a departure from traditional tonic waters that often use high fructose corn syrup or other artificial sweeteners. The use of organic agave gives Q Tonic Water a unique flavor profile and a less sweet taste compared to other tonic waters.

The decision to use real quinine and organic agave in Q Tonic Water is not just about taste, but also about enhancing the overall drinking experience. The goal of Q Tonic Water is to complement great rather than overpower them. The sharp flavor and high carbonation of Q Tonic Water allow the subtleties of a great spirit to shine through, creating a more balanced and enjoyable cocktail.

Personally, I have found that Q Tonic Water does indeed enhance the flavors of the spirits it is paired with. Whether I'm enjoying a and tonic or a tonic, the clean and crisp taste of Q Tonic Water allows the botanicals and nuances of the spirit to come forward, resulting in a more complex and satisfying drink.
