"Per Se is an upscale restaurant in New York City where the bartenders make quinine water from scratch for their Gin & Tonics.
³We found pharmaceutical-grade quinine on the internet² said Paul Roberts, beverage director and master sommelier for the Thomas Keller Restaurant Group, which owns Per Se. ³We add one-eighth teaspoon of this dry quinine powder to sparkling water from Wales, plus a little bit of lime juice, and then mix it with different gins.² This ultimate Gin & Tonic allows the Per Se bartenders to tailor quinine and gins individually."

dang. THAT is attention to detail! Which is probably why Per Se rates so highly as a restaurant, eh?
I'm a bit less refined. I like Schwepps Diet Tonic Water with my Gin and lime just fine :)
