Exactly the kind of beverage you’ll want to drink on a warm evening in a lush garden.

Delicious poured with an extra large ice cube, or mixed with gin or vodka in one of your favorite classic cocktails.
  
  • TARRAGON // A soft herbal flavor with notes of black pepper and anise. The taste of summer.
    

• SEVILLE ORANGE is California sunshine in a bottle - warm and bright. Like liquid orange marmalade, it is pleasantly sweet and delightfully tangy. Seville Oranges have a brief growing season and are only available in California for a few short weeks - which makes this product even more special! Mommenpop SEVILLE ORANGE is made with Chardonnay wine, Seville oranges, and the following botanicals:
  

  • ORRIS ROOT // A fragrant and floral root used in many gin products.
  • VANILLA BEAN // Sweet on its own, and brings out the natural juiciness of the orange.
  • GRAINS OF PARADISE // Woody with a subtle heat. Reminiscent of ginger and cardamom.
    
    
• MAKRUT Limepop is Zesty, zippy and insanely refreshing, limited edition summer release made with organic, California Makrut Limes. Makrut lime (and its leaves!) are traditionally known for their use in Southeast Asian cooking, offering delightfully intense aromatics to the cuisine. Here, we balance the remarkably fragrant Makrut with organic Bearss limes (the most common lime you'll see in the United States), fair-trade vanilla bean and a few select botanicals. The result? A tangy, bright beverage that makes for the perfect base of a spritz...for that added pop of unmistakable citrus zing.

  • HACHIYA & FUYU PERSIMMONS // Extracted into the Chardonnay grape spirit, these impart a honeyed warmth
  • TOASTED FIG LEAVES // Warm and cinnamon-like
  • GREEN WALNUTS // Bright-spiced citrus character
  • GREEN CARDAMOM // Bright, warming, and with a little kick
  • GALANGAL // A root native to Southern Asia, closely related to ginger. Bright, peppery, tart
  • QUASSIA & GENTIAN // Used sparingly, these two bitter herbs are used for added brightness and pep

Spritzing has never been easier: to make your spritz, combine equal parts sparkling wine and aperitif over ice. Garnish with a wedge or twist of citrus. Like sunshine in a glass! We love adding this to vodka or gin tonics, too!
