This delicious twist on a classic tonic combines floral rose notes synonymous with its home city and the traditional flavor that comes from pure quinine and cinchona. Cinchona, the bitter tree bark from which tonics get their quinine, delivers a complex, gently astringent tonic “bite”, and our formulation is one of the few tonic concentrates that utilizes real quinine in the recipe.

Portland's own Westward Whiskey approached us to create a tonic that paired with their award-winning Aviation Gin. The delicate floral notes in our Rose City Tonic pair beautifully with Aviation's spice roster. This makes the driest gin and tonic you'll find — simply mix together the Rose City Tonic concentrate with a bit of sparkling water prior to building your cocktail. Scroll down for more recipes.

Product Details:

A premium small-batch syrup brewed by hand in Oregon with seasonally-selected whole ingredients and natural sweeteners. Our syrups feature 40% less sugar than a typical mixer, yet are carefully formulated to have stronger flavor per serving. Each 12 oz. bottle makes 12-24 cocktails, or nearly one gallon of finished, full-strength soda.

Shelf stable for 24 months. Refrigerate after opening. Will keep refrigerated for 6 months

Recipes & Uses:

Use to flavor cocktails as you would a simple syrup, or flavoring syrup such as grenadine. Pairs with vodka or gin. 

For sodas, our syrups are typically mixed in a ratio of 1:6 or 1:7 with chilled, sparkling water. This creates a traditional-strength soda in terms of flavor and sweetness.
