"Alcuni ingredienti sembrano usciti da un romanzo d’avventura, altri da un laboratorio alchemico. La chinina — amara, potente, quasi salvifica — appartiene a entrambi i mondi" afferma Jared Brown in "Viaggio di Spirito. La storia del bere. VOL.2" (Readrink) Questo alcaloide, estratto dalla corteccia dell’albero di china sudamericano, fu isolato nel 1820 dai chimici francesi Pierre Joseph Pelletier e Joseph Caventou: due figure da romanzo ottocentesco che difficilmente immaginavano di star lanciando l’ingrediente cult del futuro Gin Tonic.
