Regulatory & Health Considerations

• Quinine Content: Tonic water contains quinine, which is generally safe in small amounts but can cause side effects in high doses (e.g., nausea, headaches, or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals).
• Caffeine: Contains caffeine (~60–80 mg per 100 ml), which may affect sleep, anxiety, or heart rate in some people.
• Sugar Content: Traditional versions contain sugar (~10–12 g per 100 ml), which may be a concern for diabetics or those monitoring calorie intake. Some variants (e.g., "Zero Sugar") may use artificial sweeteners.
• Alcohol Mixing: When consumed with alcohol (e.g., gin), it may increase caffeine intake, leading to jitters or dehydration.
