Questions & Answers
This bottle is identical to the smaller bottle, with the exception that it contains more mixer for a larger group. Unusual flavor that will make you unsatisfied with any other tonic for the rest of your life.
I'm not sure, but TomR's quinine flavor isn't dissimilar to that of other tonics. Schwepp's, Q, Fever Tree, and Fentiman's are some of the brands available in Canada.
No way, I'm afraid. I've had mine for about 6 months and am still halfway through it. It's all good.
Yes. Even after refrigerating it, it separated before I could use it all. This tonic water is authentic, but unlike any other tonic water I've ever tried.
Selected User Reviews For Tomr's Handcrafted Tonic Syrup Concentrate - 750 ml
This tonic concentrate is absolutely fantastic. I make the carbonated water with my soda stream, and for my gin and tonics, I use about a quarter of the amount recommended (about 1. a tonic/gin ratio of four). New Amsterdam Gin is the gin I usually buy. br>br>Life Tip: br>br> I like to pre-strain a gin bottle that is either empty or partially full. combine at a 1 Keep it in the freezer at a 1:4 oz ratio. It doesn't freeze because of the gin, and it makes for some frosty G&Ts. br>br>It's so good that if you forget to pick up the lime/lemon garnish, you won't miss it. It's also great in vodka tonics (try it with Tito's). )br>br>(8/23/20)br>(8/23/20)br>(8/23/20)br>(8/23 This has skyrocketed in price. At $40, it's not a good deal. Top Hat concentrate is what I'm currently using. I'm not sure how the price has risen so quickly, but it's ridiculous.
Near the end of the bottle, it becomes grittier. I used this with Henricks Gin and carbonated water over ice in a normal cocktail glass full of ice cubes, 40% gin (or so), then 1oz of Tomr's Tonic, and Makes a drink that is *extremely* tasty. It's a little sweet, and it's nothing like a traditional Gin. Tonic. The only thing it has in common with a drink like this is the Gin, carbonated water, and ice, but it's still a lot of fun. br>br>The bottle warns that there is sediment in the bottle and that it should be shaken thoroughly. We did. But about halfway through, I noticed a smidgeon of grit in my beverage. It helped if I stirred the drink a little while drinking it. However, despite shaking vigorously before pouring, the grit became more noticeable as we got closer to the bottom of the syrup bottle. We always shook hard enough to clear the visible sediment from the bottom of the boat. The only thing that comes to mind is that we weren't shaking hard enough. br>br>In conclusion, if you're looking for a change from your usual Gin, this is the drink for you. You'll probably enjoy it if you like tonic and don't mind a hint of sweetness.
Try this! Gin has never been one of my favorite beverages. Craft tonics were one of my top three favorite cocktails until I tried craft tonics. This is a fantastic product. A million times better than corn syrupy tonic water from the store. Experiment with different tonic concentrates, gins, and different proportions of club soda because everyone's definition of "bitter" is different. For example, I prefer Jack Rudy Tonic Elixir (which is also excellent), which is softer and sweeter and requires less soda, whereas Tomr's has a pleasantly bitter kick and a larger personality, which may require a little more dilution for some people. Don't let the dark brown color or sediment deter you. The drink will only have a beige tint after it's been mixed in. Because it's costly, start with the 200ml bottle and see how you like it.
For several years, I've been on the lookout for the ideal gin and tonic. Q tonic was my choice, and I still recommend it if you don't want to use a concentrate. The game was over as soon as I realized this. The flavor is fantastic, but it's the ability to customize the ratios to your own preferences that really sets it apart. The suggested ratio is printed on the bottle, but I discovered that my preferred ratio was slightly different. br>On Amazon, it is very overpriced; you can save $15-$20. I got it for $20 by shopping online; I haven't been able to find it in a local store, but I'll keep looking.
To be honest, I wasn't a fan of this stuff at first, but now that I've finished half a bottle, I'm a huge fan. I have a six-pack of supermarket tonic water in my fridge that I don't want to drink right now. It's great to have complete control over the ratio. The color was initially unappealing, but who cares if it tastes as good as it looks? This stuff is also delicious! It's also not overly sweet, which I appreciate. Counter Gin is a great match. In addition to this, I like to add half a lime's fresh juice and a squirt of simple syrup. Yummy!.
It's all very tasty. It unquestionably raises a G. If you add a little lime, it makes a nice complex non-alcoholic drink; I just wish it wasn't so expensive.
High-quality and delicious, it's ideal for mixing a top-shelf cocktail with a high-end gin or other alcoholic beverage.
I've tried a lot of tonic syrups, and this is by far the best. El Guapo Bitters, Jack Rudy's, and Ruby D's are some of the other brands I've tried. By no means were these poor choices, but I prefer the flavor of this particular syrup. br>I still like to add a lime wedge or splash to my vodka tonic, but it's not necessary; it's just a habit of mine.
