Tonic water is a key mixer to have in any home bar. The core ingredients are simple: soda water, sugar and quinine—a bitter compound taken from the bark of the cinchona tree, commonly found in South America. It's the quinine that provides that familiar bitter flavor that defines this mixer.
Yes, I know what it is and I do enjoy a good gin'n'tonic, but you are talking about taking it daily. Do you know what else besides quinine and carbondioxid is in it? The daily sugar is certainly going to do something about ones figure... :-)
I wonder what else is in that soda. Don't think it is healthy to drink this every day.

I sometimes get the diet tonics, with no added sugars.
But isn't it then an artificial sweetener? Not sure those are healthy.
I drink Canada Dry and Ginger Ale often times.
