Japanese Beetroot
This drink is a combination of an Italian vermouth and Japanese citrus. The perfect aperitif for the autumn/winter period. The bittersweet flavor of the vermouth induces the appetite while the yuze provides some freshness. Beetroot, a rather uncommon ingredient, gives the drink its earthy but sweet aftertaste.

The Cure
This drink was developed during the launch of Seedlip at an exhibition in Belgium.
The fresh acidity of the Verjuice pairs well with the honey ginger syrup and the herbal Seedlip Spice 94. It was inspired by the Penicillin cocktail, a drink that incorporates lemon, honey and ginger. The same ingredients were once used to fight off the flu, hence the name Penicillin cocktail.

Verjuice Spritz
The Spritz division is very diverse. We’ll be making a non-alcoholic spritz based on a Canadian maple verjuice. It’s the juice of unripe Minus 8 grapes, picked during different times of the year. It usually is extremely sour, but is blended with maple syrup from Quebec. It makes for a perfectly balanced base for an enjoyable spritz. We top it all off with tonic and garnish with some lime and mint for that little extra freshness.

Purple rain
The perfect cocktail to pair with a starter that is built around earthy flavors. The deeper tones of radish are freshened up by the acidity of the vinegars and shrub. A little bit of honey balm adds a touch of sweetness to the mix, balancing the whole drink. Despite the diversity of the ingredients, the Red Radish is a very accessible and intriguing cocktail.

Saffron Sour
You’ve probably heard the term ‘a sour’ before when someone was referring to a drink. For example a whiskey sour. But it’s certainly not the only one in the family. A sour is actually a combination of a spirit / liquor, acidity and a sweetener. The acidity can be lemon or lime while the sweetener can be a syrup. The most important thing when creating a sour is finding that perfect balance between sweet and sour.

Nona Collins
In 1874 there was this frequently made joke in New York where people would claim a man named Tom Collins was talking behind your back when you weren’t around. When you asked where this Tom Collins was, they would say “he’s waiting for you in the bar next door”, causing you to get angry and go out searching for him.

This spin on the classic Daiquiri is completely alcohol free with the addition of lemon verbena. Lemon verbena originates from Chile, but can be easily grown yourself. The citrus qualities of this herb provide the desired contrast to the herbal Not Rum by Stryyk.
