Fever Tree - Refreshingly Light, Low Calories Mediterranean Tonic (4x200ml Pack)
Lower calorie, lower carb version of the med tonic!
Fever Tree are masters at blending the essential oils from the flowers, fruits and herbs that have been gathered from around the Mediterranean shores with the highest quality quinine from the 'fever trees' of the eastern Congo. They have created a unique, delicate, floral tonic. Created to accompany the finest vodkas and gins or to enjoy as a sophisticated soft drink.
By blending the gentle bitterness of quinine with fruit sugars and subtly sweet floral botanicals such as Lemon Thyme and Rosemary that we've sourced from the shores of the Mediterranean, we've created a delicious, reduced calorie Mediterranean Tonic Water. A unique variation of our Premium Indian Tonic Water but with 32% fewer calories. Enjoy this refreshing twist on a classic G&T, V&T or as a sophisticated soft drink.
--------THE PRODUCER--------
Fever Tree
Following a 'tonic tasting' on the US market, Charles Rolls - who built his reputation running Plymouth Gin - joined forces with Tim Warrillow, who had a background in luxury food marketing, to analyse the composition of mixers. They discovered that the majority were preserved with sodium benzoate or similar substances, while cheap orange aromatics such as decanal and artificial sweeteners (such as saccharin) were widespread. And so started a 15 month journey. Days in the British Library researching quinine sources from as far back as 1620, trips to find the purest strains of this key ingredient and 5 iterations of the recipe were tasted before Charles and Tim were happy with the result and the first bottle of Fever-Tree Indian Tonic Water was produced in 2005.
