Non-Alcoholic Mixers |
Hi, we’re Alex and Dee. Two friends on a quest to drink better. Growing up in London & New York, we learned the power of connecting over a good drink first hand. We noticed that the mixers we were pairing with our booze were full of sugar and tasteless. We decided to create better mixers using real ingredients, less sugar, and a focus on sustainability. |

ROOT 23
 |
Simple Syrups |
We are a couple of busy moms from Columbus, Ohio who value whole ingredients, real food and quality time with our family & friends. We developed a line of all-natural flavor infused simple syrups, with the emphasis on simple, so we can balance those things we value most. Our inventive flavor combinations lend themselves to crafting delicious drinks with just a couple additional ingredients. Since we use all natural ingredients, separation often occurs, so shake them well before each use. ROOT 23 simple syrups also need to be refrigerated once opened and used within a month. ROOT 23 simple syrups have been available at local stores & farmers markets since June 2015. |
