tonic drink

A tonic drink is a beverage that combines a flavored base, often with added carbonation, along with ingredients like herbs, fruit extracts, or sweeteners to enhance its taste. The term “tonic” originally referred to medicinal drinks meant to boost health, but today it mainly describes refreshing beverages enjoyed for flavor and hydration. Some tonic drinks contain ingredients like quinine (found in tonic water) which gives a bitter taste, commonly used in cocktails like gin and tonic. Overall, tonic drinks are crafted to deliver a distinctive, often refreshing flavor profile suitable for everyday consumption or mixed drinks.
