Hmmm... so, do you speak with a New England accent by any chance?

No, and I wasn't near any of the dots on that map for "tonic." But it was mainly older people and probably not that many of those. The setting was Western Maryland and adjoining parts of West Virginia in the 50s and 60s.

WVA and western Maryland, eh? This "tonic" didn't happen to come from a still, did it?
