About the Aperitif Sweet & Fortified
Shrub is a kind of ancient, zero-alcohol beverage made from a mixture of fruit, vinegar, and sugar that dates back to the late 15th century, when it was first used as a preservative for the export and import of fresh fruits. The producer, Mathilde Cousin, is the daughter of the legendary Loire grower, Olivier. So fittingly, this shrub is made only from the highest quality organic vinegar, derived from his wine.
Highly concentrated, the best way to drink it is as a spritz - 25ml of Shub diluted with 175ml of sparkling water over ice will create the ideal balance - finished with a twist of citrus. You will be able to serve up to 28 drinks from this 700ml bottle. It has the feel of something like an alcohol-free vermouth, with all the provenance and good farming of the wine it is produced from.
Here the vinegar is infused with fresh oranges and various spices to create a refreshing, invigorating and cleansing zero-alcohol beverage, whether you are abstaining or recovering from the effects!
