Non-alcoholic apéritif brand Mother Root launched a limited-edition Mother Root Rhubarb expression that can be enjoyed as a feel-good alternative to rosé, sparkling wine, or a summer spritz.
This natural-ingredient expression features rhubarb root, which has been associated with many health benefits since ancient times, along with apple cider vinegar, blossom honey, and ginger, plus a concentrate featuring sweet potato and carrot. Flavor-wise, this bold, interesting and earthy aperitif with a complex profile boosts the tart, aromatic qualities of rhubarb with the natural flavors of a citrus fruit called chinotto.
A light, zesty way to enjoy this limited-edition Mother Root product is to pour Mother Root Rhubarb into a champagne flute and top with chilled soda water—no ice or garnish needed.
