Cinchona pubescens, also known as the Quinine Tree or the Jesuit's Bark, is a species of tree native to South America. The tree can grow up to 20 meters tall and has large, glossy leaves and clusters of white or yellow flowers. The bark of the tree is used in the production of quinine, a bitter alkaloid that has been historically used in many ways.
One traditional recipe made from the bark of the Cinchona pubescens tree is a bitter tonic called "Quinine Tonic Water". To make this, the dried and powdered bark of the tree is steeped in water and combined with sugar and lemon or lime juice to make a bitter but refreshing drink.
