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. |

Grumpy Ginger
 |
Food Products |
Hello! I'm Sue Ann, founder of Grumpy Ginger. Like many Malaysians, food is what I miss most about home. I’ve been living in the US for over a decade, and each time I travel back from Kuala Lumpur my bags are so stuffed with herbs and spices I struggle to get them under the plane’s weight limit. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve found myself cooking in search of a piece of home. Food was how my parents expressed their love, and I’m no different. I’ve converted Jackson’s American palate so he asks for curry instead of pasta for dinner, an achievement I’m especially proud of. Malaysian food is far less well known than other Asian cuisines in the US. I hope Grumpy Ginger can help spread the word. The combo of waft-worthy flavor and simplicity make it hard to beat - but I'll let you try it and decide for yourself! |

Dairy Alternatives |
From Dec 4th-15th, we’re going to hide a box ✨🎁✨ full of incredible food gifts from over 30 food friends and partners, in 12 cities across the United States. Join our cult and enjoy discounts on a subscription service that will have our yogurts delivered fresh to your door. Our coconut yogurt is unlike anything else and probably the most powerfully probiotic food you've ever had. We small batch ferment 800 billion highly active probiotics into every quart, creating an insanely probiotic coconut yogurt. We make all of our yogurts in artisanal, small batches. This means there is some variability in texture and consistency, especially when the yogurts are shaken during shipping. Sometimes, the cream at the top gets mixed with the fermented coconut water at the bottom, which can also change the texture. Other times the thicker portion at the top can seem chunky or fluffy. This is totally normal, and your yogurt still has all of the super probiotic benefits your body loves! If you want, you can stir it up or let it settle out to modify texture. Our coconut yogurts are plant-based instead of dairy-based so they will last for 8 weeks unopened. Once opened, if you take care of it, it will take care of you! Seal the jar tightly, don’t double dip, keep other food particles out of the jar, keep it in the fridge, and it should last for 3 weeks. The Coconut Cult specializes in coconut yogurt that is rich in probiotics and promotes gut health. The Coconut Cult is known for its rich, creamy coconut yogurt that is high in probiotics, offering a delicious and healthy snack option. |
