Bottled cocktail pioneers, The Everleigh Bottling Co. will launch their first zero-proof cocktail, the Bellini, just in time for summer. Following on from the 2020 launch of its range of sparkling cocktails, the Bellini is a quality non-alcoholic cocktail that can be enjoyed anywhere, anytime, every time: simply chill and have it made.
Paving the way with their ‘Famous Four’ classic cocktails released back in 2015, The Everleigh Bottling Co. has become a brand synonymous with world class pre-mixed drinks. Inheriting the name, recipes and ethos from Made in the Shade’s flagship cocktail bar, The Everleigh, every cocktail is hand-made and bottled with the distinctive attention to detail that landed the venue its reputation as one of the best bars in the world. The Everleigh Bottling Co. produces classic cocktails, manufactured to the most exacting standards which capture the old-world elegance of cocktail culture in elegantly designed, single-serve bottles.
The Everleigh Bottling Co.’s non-alcoholic twist on an Italian classic is mixed using peach purée, grape juice, verjuice, natural flavours and salt to create a sophisticated sparkling cocktail that is refreshing and expertly balanced. The striking bottle design takes inspiration from vintage Italian sodas whilst continuing to talk to the signature style that is synonymous with The Everleigh Bottling Co. brand.
Bar stalwart and The Everleigh Bottling Co. co-owner, Michael Madrusan says, “We have long admired the Bellini and enjoyed the classic mix of peach purée and sparkling wine as a family tradition. As our family has grown and evolved, so has our desire to produce cocktails to suit every occasion,” says Michael. “After much trial and error, we were able to create a non-alcoholic cocktail that builds on the distinctive flavour profile of the Bellini to deliver a full-flavoured, refreshing cocktail, bubbling with personality and complexity.”
The latest release from Everleigh Bottling Co. highlights the fact that alcohol shouldn’t be the indicator of a good drink while also acknowledging growing trends that see consumers drinking less and looking for premium zero-alcohol alternatives[1].
The Everleigh Bottling Co. co-owner Zara Madrusan says, “You don’t need to drink alcohol to enjoy delicious, expertly mixed cocktails and this is where the Bellini comes in. It’s a premium option for those who want a well-constructed cocktail and to share in the very same fine drinking experience.”
A cocktail for all occasions, the Bellini is the perfect accompaniment to a weekend brunch, backyard barbecue, picnic in the park, or any moment worthy of celebration. Serve in a chilled Champagne flute or simply straight from the bottle.
The Bellini will be available to purchase from 18 October via https://everleighbottling.com/
Price – $18.95 per 4-pack or $6 individually.
