Why is tonic water called indian tonic water?!
Answers:
Tonic water (or Indian tonic water) is a carbonated soft drink flavored with quinine!. However, it is not considered to be soda!.
The drink gains its name from the medicinal effects of this bitter flavoring!. The quinine was added to the drink as a prophylactic against malaria, since it was originally intended for consumption in tropical areas of South Asia and Africa where that disease is endemic!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
