Answer to your question - Quninie

Answer 2

Carbonated water and quinine. Usually taken with Gin to prepare
a Gin Tonic. During the WWII soldiers were encouraged to drink
tonic water pure as prevention for Malaria and as a hydrate in the
the heat of the far Eastern regions, India and vicinities. Quinine is
a natural medication for the prevention of Malaria.

Answer 3

Tonic water originally contained only carbonated water and quinine, and it contained a large amount of the latter. However, most tonic water today contains a medically insignificant amount of quinine, and is thus used for its flavor only. It is consequently less bitter, and is also usually sweetened. Some manufacturers also produce diet tonic water.

Quinine is a natural white crystalline alkaloid having antipyretic, anti-malarial with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties and a bitter taste. It is a stereoisomer of quinidine.
