Zenbarn Farms Hierba Non-Alcoholic CBD Spirit, $65.00

Zenbarn Farms Hierba Non-Alcoholic CBD Spirit

Hierba small-batch, zero-proof spirit offers a one-of-a-kind drinking experience. This unique beverage is a collaboration between Zenbarn Farms and Woodnose Drinks’ family farm organic maple syrup, fermented and aged in bourbon barrels, and combined with Fair Trade, shade-grown artisanal coffee with craft grown hemp flower extract, and botanical OG Kush terpenes. On the palate, it’s somewhere between an Amaro, Kahlúa, and a shrub, but with many more layers of complexity. To some, Hierba tastes like a mysterious, earthy espresso martini with a pleasant cannabis nose.

Karviva Unwined Non-Alcoholic Wine, Pack of 4/$31.96

Karviva Unwined Non-Alcoholic Wine

This Malbec-inspired non-alcoholic beverage is the first of its kind. Unlike other non-alcohol wines, this alcohol-free juice blend doesn’t go through the labor-intensive and wasteful de-alcohol process. It’s a functional wine replacement drink that delivers a wide array of benefits. Carefully blended with tart and powerhouse fruits, this burgundy-colored drink tastes like the well-loved Malbec, minus the alcohol. It has its iconic smoky aroma, sophisticated layers of fruit, and a delicate balance of sweetness and tannin. Karviva UnWined pairs well with meat, fatty fish, dark meat poultry, and aged cheese.

Mocktail Club Non-Alcoholic Beverages, Variety Pack/$16.96

Mocktail Club Non-Alcoholic Beverages

There’s a growing trend toward better-for-you, functional beverages and this one is perfect for Dry January.

It’s an exciting and healthy non-alcoholic option that boasts rich and interesting flavors. Mocktail Club balances sweet, sour, and savory notes to create well-balanced cocktails without the alcohol. The mocktails include:

Capri Sour – made of pomegranate juice and cranberry shrub made with apple cider vinegar that provides the tartness. The caffeine-free tea and lemongrass create a nice balance, while the agave compliments the sour.

Manhattan Berry – a sophisticated blend of Blackberries, Ginger, and Pear Shrub, which provides a delectable balance of sweet and tart from the blackberries and pear shrub made with apple cider vinegar, and finished with a ginger flavor.

Havana Twist – refreshing Cucumber, Mint, Lime with a touch of Cardamom and cloves. The cardamom and cloves provide the refreshing cucumber mint and a lime medley with some accents and complexity.

Bombay Fire – the pomegranate juice and caffeine-free tea provide natural tannins, while the organic agave rounds it out with a balanced sweetness. The chili peppers provide a smoky lingering taste that leaves you wanting more.

All offerings are non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegan for added goodness.
