Wow...you make your own, with the bark? Nice!

We have quinine tincture that we make our tonic water with...I add a drop of stevia drops....tastes 100% better than the horrid diet tonic. (Regular tonic water is too sweet, for us.)

Fevertree makes a light version of tonic, but we still like our homemade version a lot better.

Yes fever tree is good. The only one that is. But it’s expensive so I ordered cinchona bark and have a recipe to brew tonic water with. For the simlup part I’ve been using erythritol and sugar mixed, about half of what the recipe calls for.
Until recently I didn’t know about the tincture or extract but I will definitely change it up next time. So much easier!
