Frequently Asked Questions

What is tonic syrup?

Tonic syrup is a concentrated syrup made from cinchona bark, sugar, and various botanicals. It is used to create tonic water when mixed with carbonated water or club soda. Using tonic syrup allows you to control the bitterness and sweetness of your drink, making it a great base for a tailored alcohol-free gin and tonic.

What do El Guapo™ Summer Berries Bitters taste like?

El Guapo™ Summer Berries Bitters offer a vibrant and fruity flavor profile with notes of berries, rhubarb, and other summer fruits. They provide a tart and aromatic complexity that pairs beautifully with the tonic syrup and lime, enhancing the overall flavor of this club soda, bitters, and lime mocktail.

Can I use regular tonic water instead of tonic syrup and club soda?

Yes, you can. While using tonic syrup and club soda allows for greater flavor control, you can substitute them with a good quality tonic water. The taste will be similar, but it may not be as customizable. If you use tonic water, you can omit the tonic syrup and simply use bitters, lime, and tonic water.
