I want to share something I recently learned with all my wonderful followers.
Every now and then I enjoy a good vodka tonic or gin and tonic and I assumed I knew what I was drinking. But – that was most definitely not the case. Thanks to my brother, I became aware that most tonic waters contain high fructose corn syrup. Yikes! I didn’t know that. I assumed it was basically water. I don’t know about you, but I do not want to be consuming high fructose corn syrup…ever.
Enter Q Tonic. I can’t say enough about it! It is awesome stuff! It’s vegan, it’s delicious and its ingredients are all natural! It tastes so clean and real. The drinks I make with it take on a whole new meaning; I can now see that the drinks I used to make with Schweppes, for example, tasted artificial.
It does cost more money, but since I don’t drink often, when I do, I think it’s worth some extra money to drink well!
Salud – to your health! Don’t drink crap! I am so glad that I know about tonic water and I hope you are glad that I shared it with you!

Ugh, vodka tonic is my go-to drink. I’ve been trying to avoid high fructose corn syrup, and it’s amazing how many food and drink items it’s in! Thanks for the info. I might have to try this for at-home cocktails and stick to wine when I’m out.
But keep asking for Q Tonic or other healthier options when you’re out. The more we ask, the sooner they’ll get it (I hope)! 😀
Good idea!
