FEVER-TREE
We start with the idea that, if ¾ of your drink is the mixer, then you should use the best. We work with only the best naturally sourced ingredients from around the world and no artificial flavourings or sweeteners to create mixers that do justice to the world's finest spirits.
ELDERFLOWER TONIC WATER
By blending the essential oils from handpicked English elderflowers with quinine of the highest quality from the 'fever trees' of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, we have created a delicious, floral variation of our Indian tonic water.
TASTE
The delicate and sweet flavor of elderflower is perfectly balanced by the soft bitterness of the quinine, which pairs perfectly with fresh and floral gins and premium vodkas.
KEY INGREDIENTS
We use elderflower petals from Gloucestershire, which are picked at night when the flowers are most fragrant and then distilled into an oil that gives this tonic water a delicate floral sweetness.
QUININE
Cinchona ledgeriana
DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO
Quinine is the key ingredient that creates the gentle bitterness in tonic water. Our name was chosen as it is the colloquial name for the cinchona tree, the bark of which produces quinine. After discovering early 17th century references in the British library, Charles and Tim located the only remaining plantation of original Cinchona Ledgeriana trees (known locally as ‘fever trees’) which produce some of the highest quality quinine in the world, located in the Democratic Republic of Congo. For Charles and Tim, there was no other option but to source Fever-Tree’s quinine from this area.
ELDERFLOWER
Sambucus nigra
GLOUCESTERSHIRE, ENGLAND
To capture the finest elderflower flavour, we source handpicked flowers from a small Gloucestershire farm on the edge of the Cotswolds. Renowned for growing some of the highest quality elder bushes in the UK, the elderflowers are hand-collected on the farm between May and June when the region is in full bloom. The flowers are picked at sundown when they are at their freshest and the unique flavour extraction process begins within hours, ensuring that none of the delicate floral flavour is lost.
INGREDIENTS
Carbonated Spring Water, Cane Sugar, Fresh Elderflower Extract, Acid: Citric Acid, Natural Flavours including Natural Quinine.
