When a Tonic Water Source Is More Than Just an Amazon Wishlist Source Buzzfeed

The water source used to make the tonic was made in Mexico, but Buzzfeed reports that the brand has been experimenting with a similar plant-based formula in Asia for some time now.

That plant-derived water is now available for purchase online. 

The new formula, which is called the Tonic Water by CucumberTonic, was inspired by a Mexican plant-made tonic that’s been making the rounds online since 2016.

While the tonics aren’t a new thing in the US, this brand’s new formula is the first one to use a plant- based version. 

Cucumber Tonic said the new tonic, which has been on the market for more than a year, uses only 100% plant-grown ingredients.

The product is meant to offer health benefits for people of all ages, including those with asthma, cancer, diabetes and obesity. 

According to Buzzfeed, this is the company’s first foray into the Asian market.

The brand has previously made its name in China, but the brand hasn’t been seen in the United States for quite some time. 

A spokeswoman for Cucumictin told Buzzfeed that they were “really excited” to be partnering with Buzzfeed to bring the Tonics to Asian markets. 

“This is a great opportunity for us to bring Cucumbis tonics to new markets and it gives us the chance to grow our business and reach even more customers,” she said. 

It’s not the first time Cucuman is making an appearance in Asia.

Last year, the brand launched its own line of products in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore. 

But this new partnership with BuzzFeed is likely to be more of a splash than a new product.

While there are no official plans to expand into Asian markets, the company said it hopes to eventually open up to the wider Asian market, where it could expand into products for individuals, groups and families.
