So, when i was drinking your gin, i wondered what the hell is quinine?
1 : a bitter crystalline alkaloid C20H24N2O2 from cinchona bark used in medicine
2 : a salt of quinine used especially as an antipyretic, antimalarial, and bitter tonic

antipyretic.: an agent that reduces fever.

Tonic water is carbonated water flavored with fruit extracts, sugar and quinine.
It is also known as Indian Tonic Water or just Tonic.

The flavoring agent quinine is a bitter alkaloid from the bark of the cinchona tree.
It is used as the base flavor in most bitters, and is also used in the treatment of malaria.

i guess the moral of the story is drinking can be good for you as long as you use maid-tale mixture.
but the really interesting thing is the obsession with bitter.
is there a correlation?
i like bitter.
i like being bitter about working.
i like being reproachful about living.
mostly i'm sick of you.
