Tonic description
Every syrup maker seems to have magically discovered a long lost family recipe for making the World’s Best Tonic Water. We feel left out because our relatives never made tonic water, but they sure as heck drank lots of gin and tonics. We tried to make a tonic syrup that tastes like the great tonic waters of Europe using cinchona bark instead of pure quinine. However, after months of experimenting, we couldn’t pull it off. Trying to figure out why the tonic syrup tasted muddy and overly astringent, we learned that quinine isn’t water soluble. After a long and exhaustive search, we found a producer of all natural quinine extract. Now we could tackle that tonic syrup! That’s our story. At Speed Craft, we think that our blend of citrus, sugar and natural quinine beats a manufactured marketing story any day.
