Questions & Answers

What is the difference between this and Schweppes tonic?

There is no comparison. While Schweppes was our go-to tonic in the past, Jack Rudy Tonic syrup has far more flavor and aroma complexity. Tanqueray 10 is fantastic with it.

Has anyone made a comparison between this and El Guapo? Which one has the highest concentration of quinine?

A blind taste test of Jack Rudy, El Guapo, and several other tonic syrups, as well as Fever Tree, was conducted by six friends. Fever Tree was just edging out Jack Rudy, with the rest of the field trailing far behind. "If I wanted to taste mostly Angostura bitters, I'd have a Manhattan - " was the most common comment made about El Guapo. This isn't a tonic in the traditional sense. "I have no idea how much quinine is in them."

I'm curious about the amount of quinine in this. ?

There are a total of six ingredients in this recipe. Quinine concentrate is the first. I hope this information is useful. Steve

There's no quinine flavor, so it's sweet
3/5

This was purchased so that I could make my own espresso tonic. The flavor of quinine is nearly undetectable. existent. This tonic may appeal to you if you prefer a sweet tonic with a citrus flavor and no bitter undertones. If you're looking for a flavor that tastes like Fever Tree, look elsewhere.

Although this syrup is pricey, it has a unique, complex flavor that is quite enjoyable
5/5

Although Jack Rudy's Cocktail Tonic syrup is expensive, I enjoy it. I bought it because, while sucrose is fine for me, I prefer to avoid high-fructose corn syrup. corn syrup with a high fructose content (This is just my personal preference. ) ) However, I discovered that this syrup makes a far better cocktail than even a good tonic water; It's a lot more interesting and complex. br>I'll use this to make a "mocktail" with club soda and a squeeze of lime juice when I don't feel like drinking a real cocktail. br>Note: If you're looking for a unique way to express yourself, try using the words It's quite delicious.

This isn't something you should buy! This is what I got to add flavor to the carbonated water I make with my soda stream
3/5

I prefer plain sparkling water, but I enjoy tonic, and I saw Jack Rudy advertised and decided to give it a try. Allow me to share my knowledge with you - Don't waste your money on this expensive product; I added the syrup to my bubbly water over and over again with no discernible taste. Finally, in a fit of rage, I drank the entire bottle of syrup. It tasted like slightly sweetened water with no discernible flavor. So that's what I bought - There is nothing. Please don't waste your time.

Being good comes at an exorbitant price
3/5

Thats it. At a local store, I was able to get it for $5 less. As a result, I've decided to write a review about it. At $23, plus the cost of soda water, it's a good deal. Making your own tonic is much more expensive than buying a bottle of "Q. " You can even get 24 cans of 7 on Amazon. For less than the price of one of these bottles, you can get 5 Q Tonic shipped to you. You could make about 20 drinks with one jar of syrup if you stretched it to its limits. Alternatively, the 24 cans of tonic could be used to make about 30 drinks. Plus, you didn't have to go out and buy any more club soda. Just take another look at that, and let it sink in. br>br>I will never purchase this item again. I'm ashamed I even did it in the first place. Sure, the flavor is pleasant; however, there is no compelling reason to purchase this syrup over the many other excellent and less expensive "high end" tonics available. Even the store's small 4-packs for $5 are a better deal. We could start talking about any kind of value if the jar cost less than $9. However, at more than twice the price, the value is simply not there. The flavor is no different from any other tonic on the market. Fever Tree and Q are widely available where I live, so if you're in a more remote area or can't get tonic the traditional way, this product might be useful to you. Otherwise, anyone who is concerned about their finances should avoid purchasing this.

My wife enjoys her Vodka Tonics, and I enjoy my Gin and Tonics, so I'm not impressed by the 'value' or the taste
3/5

I made the decision to give it a shot. I made a batch according to their directions and tasted it against two different tonics - Hers is Fever Tree Premium Indian, while mine is Canada Dry. The Jack's knickknacks - The quinine is barely discernible in this mixture, which was prepared at. 75 oz. to 5 oz. soda, as directed. It glides over the surface. We didn't think it was very good, though. With 22 different'mixes' to choose from, there's something for everyone. as a result of their advice This will yield 126 ounces of mixed tonic water (22*5-litres). 16 oz. Jacks and Soda) Likewise, if you buy 110 oz. of Canada Dry Soda Water (not the expensive stuff) - Your per-ounce costs are approximately 21 cents. If you just buy the fever tree, the cost is about the same; if you buy Canada Dry or Schwepps tonic water, the cost is about the same. 4 cents per ounce is what you're talking about. My gins (Beefeaters, Hayman's Old Tom, Hendricks, Bombay (the regular stuff), Aviation, and Tanqueray London Dry) all taste great with Canada Dry and some freshly squeezed lime. 75 ounces of jacks and 3 ounces of soda gave it the flavor I wanted, but the cost would nearly double to around 35 cents per ounce. Furthermore, it lacked the quinine flavor that I prefer.

Jack Rudy Cocktail Co
5/5

is a cocktail company based in New York City. 17 ounces of classic tonic syrup To make my own tonic water, I purchased a SodaStream machine. In my gin and tonic cocktails, I used Jack Rudy's syrup. It appeals to me greatly. It's very simple to use and isn't as sweet as other commercial brands, which I like; it's a big hit at my bar!.

I wish I had been aware of this earlier
5/5

So good. So good. So good. Using the frozen gin and tonics recipe from serious eats. It's delicious. I also whipped up a couple of regular g t's, and it's fantastic. Bitters are necessary, in my opinion, but a bottle will last for years. My next purchase will include a number of bottles. Just a little something to consider. This takes a long time to arrive, but it's well worth it. Make the necessary adjustments to your order.

I wanted to give this a try after seeing it on a YouTube video about Gin and Tonics
3/5

It was supposed to be a quinine concentrate with a great taste but none of the sugar. Unfortunately, it appears to be the opposite: it's extremely sweet, and I can't detect any quinine. Some people may prefer it that way, but I find the lack of quinine to be a major letdown.
