#ADDTOCART: Crisp & Crude Hemp Botanicals

Mellow Mule with Pineapple Express botanicals

Tasting Notes: Juicy pineapple, ginger heat, and muddled mint.

Pineapple Express botanicals, you ask? Mood-lifting botanical extracts. Citrusy and herbaceous. Relaxing and exciting. So, drop your worries, take it easy, and go with the flow. This non-alcoholic mule has gone south to the jungle. Tropical juicy pineapple mingling with fresh cut Idaho mint, earthy botanicals, and a whopping ginger heat finish. The perfect vibe for a chill night.

Gold Fashioned with Chocolate Thai botanicals

Tasting Notes: Aged oak barrel, bitter orange, and zesty dandelion.  

Chocolate Thai botanicals, you ask? Mood-lifting botanical extracts. Rich and lush. Free and uninhibited. So, pour a glass, dim the lights, and play some music. This zero-proof number is bold, bright, and a world traveler. Inspired by oak barrels stored for decades in Kentucky rickhouses, to the bitterly complex chinotto oranges grown in Liguria, to the smoky lapsang souchong tea leaves from the Fujian province of China, and then back to that familiar field of dandelions toasting in the warm golden sun. This drink flirts with the classics like the Gold Rush and Old Fashioned but is wholly its own.

Paloma Daydream with Space Queen botanicals

Tasting Notes: Rio Red grapefruit, charred oak, and a dash of salt.

Space Queen botanicals, you ask?Mood-lifting botanical extracts. Floral and fruity. Airy and carefree. So, close your eyes, think happy, and drift away. This booze-free Paloma, which means dove in Spanish, soars over those big blue skies. From Rio Red grapefruits grown in the Texas valley, to the earthy and smoky charred oak reminiscent of a barrel aging reposado. This take on a Paloma is elevated with a dash of salt, an old bartender’s trick to brighten and balance a citrus-filled drink with the added benefit of keeping you well hydrated. Perfect for a sunny day.

OG Tonic with Lime OG botanicals

Tasting Notes: Piney juniper, bright tonic, and gentian root.

Lime OG botanicals, you ask? Mood-lifting botanical extracts. Zesty and woodsy. Body calming and mood centering. So, take a deep breath, put your feet up, and hit the reset button. This is the cool spirit-free cousin of a G&T. Picture a juniper basket loaded with gentian root, angelica, cardamom, coriander, bubby tonic, and the zesty finish of Persian lime. It’s kind of like taking a meditative forest bath with each sip.

#ADDTOCART BRAVUS BREWING

#ADDTOCART: Drink Free Spirits

For drinkers who want a non-alcoholic cocktail, simply replace the traditional spirit 1:1 with Free Spirits. If alcohol is still in the plan, Free Spirits gives a never-before-had control to ‘dial-up’ or ‘dial-down’ the alcohol in your cocktail – all the way from ‘non-alcoholic’ to ‘just a touch of booze’ to ‘half and half’ and beyond, without sacrificing taste or the integrity of the cocktail. All of our expressions are zero proof, less than .5% ABV.

The Spirit of Bourbon, a rich, oaky, caramel-kissed non-alcoholic alternative to a great Kentucky Bourbon, is made with all-natural flavors and functional ingredients to awaken your taste buds and help elevate your mood and recharge your body. With an oaky-toffee nose, followed by a velvety-smooth, toasted almond and brown sugar palate, The Spirit of Bourbon is the heart and soul of your favorite cocktail.

The Spirit of Gin, a smooth, bright, and floral non-alcoholic alternative to a London Dry Gin, is made with all-natural flavors and functional ingredients to awaken your taste buds, help elevate your mood and recharge your body. With the fresh nose of juniper, followed by notes of citrus, coriander, and cardamom, The Spirit of Gin never fails to excite and refresh.

Made with margaritas in mind, the Spirit of Tequila is guaranteed to bring the heat to your favorite cocktail. With the same fiery, bold complexity as traditional tequila, the Spirit of Tequila offers a healthier, non-alcoholic alternative, crafted with all-natural flavors and ingredients for a refreshing experience.
