Watermelon Chile Lime takes the salted-spicy-sweet flavor of classic Mexican candy and turns it into a genuinely balanced cocktail or mocktail base. Fresh watermelon leads, lime brightens it, and chile brings a savory, salty heat that keeps it from ever tasting one-note. It’s nostalgic and sophisticated at the same time — a conversation starter in a glass, and just as satisfying whether or not there’s alcohol in it.

Pairs beautifully with: tequila, vodka, sparkling water

Ingredients: Watermelon, sugar, lime juice, white wine vinegar, chile flakes, citric acid.

How to use:

Cocktail: Shake 1 oz shrub with 2 oz of your favorite spirit (we suggest vodka, tequila, or rum), add ice, top with 2 oz soda water and stir. Or add to 4 oz sparkling wine.

Mocktail: Shake 1 oz shrub with ice, top with 4 oz soda water for a delicious mocktail.
