I am going to have take back all of the self-pitying things I said about how of all the cool new products we tasted at Tales of the Cocktail, none of them are available in Austin. As of this week, Q Tonic is available at Whore Foods in Austin, and soon nation-wide, which is very exciting. (The tonic, not the Whole Foods) Nevermind that we can't get St. Germain elderflower liqueur. Jade Absinthes? Feh! We have Q. Q is a luxury tonic made w/o corn syrup or any other nastiness. I wrote about it here.

As much as I would like to take credit for this beautiful pictures of Q Tonic on the shelves at Whole Foods in Austin, I did not take it.

At $9.99/4-pack, it may be more expensive than many of the beers you drink. But you will need to get over it and make the investment. It will change the way you think about tonic water. Or something.
