I'd love a great gin and tonic at home, that's not made with Canada Dry/Schweppes! Thu Jul 10 11:01:33 -0700 2008 10616 EJC 1 3859571 There's a brand called Fever Tree that is really good....I've seen it at Food Emporium and Whole Foods in Manhattan....haven't found a source in Queens yet. There is another brand, I've seen at whole foods, that is really expensive, so I haven't tried it yet...$10 for 4 6 oz bottles. But I agree...Canada Dry is completely unacceptable, and Schweppes is OK, but is so much sweeter now than what I remember as a kid.......

I wish I could remember the name, but I've meant to try it. Sat Jul 12 14:44:05 -0700 2008 3856533 10971 Nehna 2 3863159 Lenell's in Red Hook might have it. Sat Jul 12 16:05:24 -0700 2008 3862981 147495 psnative 3 3865265 Q Tonic is amazing. It's sweetened with agave nectar instead of sugar.... I don't think most people realize just how much sugar is in regular tonic water. And it has real natural quinine. I think that normal tonic has chemically synthesized quinine. This stuff is so much better than any other tonic I've ever had that it's almost a different beverage altogether. I believe they sell it at Whole Foods. Also at Marlowe and Sons in Williamsburg (they have another brand of fancy tonic there too, which I haven't tried). It's at Dean and Deluca in Soho, but costs so much more there that I just want to give them a good beating for being so uncool. enjoy it!

Sun Jul 13 16:41:32 -0700 2008 3865265 10971 Nehna 1 3865538 Amazing isnt the word I would use for Q Tonic - more like flat. I have bought it from Stinky BKLN several times over the course of a year and while I dont mind the agave sweetener I do mind the low carbonation as half the reason I want a drink is for that texture. Maybe Stinkys batches are just flat but I dont think so. And it comes in two sizes that I know of.

I'll check it out next time I try it! Mon Jul 14 12:12:57 -0700 2008 3865538 169925 apossibleworld
