Looking for lighter-weight summer drinks? Our low-alcohol Rojito spritzer is always a standout, and we also have a whole range of non-alcoholic drinks—from Sicilian sodas and chilled teas and Po Valley organic nectars to sparkling mineral water from Lombardy. Oh, and Portuguese teas and Italian espresso too, in case you were wondering.
ROJITO SPRITZER
Basically summer in a crisp red and wine 250ml can, this Spanish spritzer adds a splash of lemon to tempranillo wine for a cool, refreshing drink with only 4.5% alcohol—and it’s also gluten-free. A modern take on a 100-year-old Spanish custom, Rojito (pronounced Roe-HE-toe) is the perfect accompaniment for summer picnics and barbeques.
TOMARCHIO SODAS AND CHILLED TEAS
We’re long-time fans of Sicilian soda-maker Tomarchio’s Deliziosa & Autentica range and all its simple and genuine flavours straight from the daily lives of Sicilian families—think traditional faves like tonica, limonata and chinotto, along with modern tastes like cola and ginger beer.
This summer we’ve also added new products from Tomarchio’s chilled organic tea range—the refreshing Organic Green Tea infused with fresh mint and orange blossom, and the black tea-based Organic Lemon Tea and Organic Peach Tea full of the taste of Sicilian summer fruit.
All Tomarchio’s drinks use pristine, mineral-rich water drawn from the nearby slopes of Mount Etna. We also love the retro charm of the bottle design, evoking the Sicily of 1920 when Tomarchio was founded.
ACHILLEA ORGANIC NECTARS
We found these organic nectars—peach, pear and apricot in 200ml bottles—in the famous Po Valley in northwest Italy, where Achillea has been pursuing its passion for organic production totally in harmony with nature since 1980. Achillea’s juices are made with 100% organic fruit, all locally harvested at the perfect point of ripeness, and with no added sugar or gluten.
We appreciate that Achillea carries its commitment to nature through to the company’s environmental impact, using 100% recyclable packaging.
TAVINA WATER
Tavina delivers premium Italian mineral water sourced from the ancient glacier basin of the Lombard Prealps within the Alto Garda Bresciano Nature Park. Pure and refreshing, it’s packed with calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, sulphates and fluorides for an easy health kick.
In addition to the 1l and 500ml PET bottle formats, we also have the 750ml Tavina Elegantia Vivace in a shapely glass bottle that models the lines of a beautiful woman in an elegant evening dress—designed specifically to lend that extra touch of class to premium restaurant tables.
LISBON TEAS
It’s difficult to look past this range of Portuguese teas—partly because the exotic tins are so striking, but mostly because of the teas themselves. From Custard Tart to Cherry and Chocolate, these chunky, aromatic and flavoursome teas are so intense that any tea leftover in the pot is just begging to be chilled in the fridge for later in the day. We’re looking forward to a large jug of Lisbon’s special Christmas infusion with its hints of spice, chocolate and vanilla.
Short on time? The Lisbon Tea Company also has a great organic tea bag range in flavours from Detox to Chai.
PELLINI COFFEE
Last but not least we have a great range of coffee beans and pods from Verona-based Pellini Caffè. Pellini has been producing top-line espresso coffee since 1922, growing from a small coffee roasting business into an internationally renowned brand. Pellini’s roasting process is tailored to each blend so as to highlight its unique characteristics—in fact, Pellini was the first Italian company to employ professional tasters to evaluate its coffee blends. These are terrific quality coffees from one of Italy’s most skilled and experienced coffee companies.
And that’s a wrap for our summer drinks! Drop us a line any time if you have questions. We’re always happy to help you make the best drink choices for your business.
