Canned Cocktails |
In December 2020 we (Ben and Emma) launched Fling with our first two canned cocktails, Classic Mojito and Classic Margarita. Fast forward 2 years and we have added two more iconic cocktails to our line up, Passionfruit Martini and the first New Zealand made canned Espresso Martini and launched a range of cocktail mixers including our famous Rosebud. We launched with the goal to be the home of cocktails in New Zealand, where you could get not only your favourite cocktails but accessories too. Our range caters to all, we have something for the fruity lovers, something for the coffee drinkers, something for the calorie conscious and we've even got something for the "I only drink beer" but secretly loves a cocktail people! |

Drew and Taylor's
 |
Hard Iced Tea |
As young sisters, we first discovered the surprisingly unfamiliar and unique taste combination of Vodka and iced tea while holidaying in Canada. This sparked an idea to bring this unique taste back to our homeland in NZ. Our journey for creating an innovative beverage that is not ordinary, has no artificial colouring and is lightly and naturally sweetened began. Named after ourselves, Drew and Taylor’s Hard Iced tea is amongst the very first alcohol combinations of its kind in NZ. We are the kind of girls who balance working hard and playing hard. Dancing, drinks with friends, cooking a gourmet meal, camping locally, travelling abroad, fishing, hunting and immersing ourselves in all new experiences that come our way. We have a lust for life and enjoy time spent with good friends, our family and just getting amongst it all. |

Mezcal |
Two cultures, one bottle. Hayden met Adrian in 2018, and shortly after, met mezcal in a bar in Mexico City. A staple of Mexican culture, the vibrant, versatile beverage can be found everywhere; around a fireplace, on the beach, at dinner parties. It was something Adrian had grown up with, but was a new experience for Hayden, giving the couple an opportunity to bring it back to the Land of the Long White Cloud. The heart of the agave, the piña, is cooked in much the same way as it has been for the last 200 years - similar to a hangi. The juices are then fermented and distilled, resulting in a unique, smoky, earthy flavour profile. |

Zangria
 |
Beverages |
Having spent a fair few summers in the vines and cellars of Marlborough, we decided it was time to challenge what NZ wine could be. Made with wine that's crafted right here in Aotearoa, and blended with fruit juice picked by those who know their apples from their oranges - Zangria is a refreshing blend crafted with a whole lotta soul. Thanks for being part of the journey! When less is often seen as more, Zangria has decided to bring back one key ingredient - SOUL. It's in everything that we do - from the care of every grapevine, to the selection of real fruit juice in every sip. It's the sore cheeks after a night of laughs, or the celebration after a job well done. It's never perfectly manicured or polished but it's the most important ingredient for life well lived. |
