Made by infusing fresh wonky fruit, with natural spring water and our ultra-pure, four-times distilled, ServedPured™ gluten-free alcohol (we know that’s a mouthful, but it’s worth it).The result? A crisp, light flavour, with a touch of natural sweetness. No sugar, no carbs, no sweeteners, no-nonsense.Pure Flavour. Pure Spirit. Pure in Every Sense.
