How to Make Your Own DIY Tonic

By: on 28 February 2020
Using the vodka method & the spices supplied in Kit B produced a very nicely flavoured G & T. I would however advise caution when adding the sugar. I do not like a sweet G & T so I only used 1/3 of the suggested sweetening. In my next bottle of syrup I will try 1/5 (you can always add more but you can"take it out).

Provides a little bit of background information and an easy to follow recipe for a great tasting tonic water. Would be better if it provided a couple of different recipes, but it does suggest spices you can add to your flavour concentrate.
