Drop of the Day - Finery Grapefruit, Cucumber and Mint 5%

Enjoy a refreshing beverage this summer with Finery’s Grapefruit, Cucumber and Mint vodka cocktail.
Like summer in a can, Finery’s bittersweet grapefruit, bright, minty cucumber, Seven Times Distilled Vodka and Fancy Soda, combine to deliver a refreshing tipple with a subtle sparkle.
Pour over ice and enjoy the fresh flavours with a plate of our Prawn and Avocado Sushi Salad or our Goat Cheese Croquettes with Honey and Toasted Almonds, or mix in to your favourite cocktail for something a little fancier (see cocktail recipe below for inspiration).

You can sip on Finery’s Grapefruit, Cucumber and Mint all summer long knowing that it contains zero sugar, carbs and preservatives and just 71 Calories per serve!
All Finery cocktails are available in either 5% or 0% options, and are both vegan friendly and gluten free, ensuring you can enjoy the same great flavour, without the alcohol. Perfect for those abstaining from alcohol, or if you don’t want to overdo it this silly season.

About Finery:
Finery Cocktails is a range of vodka-based cocktails designed to take ready-to-drink options to a whole new level.
Made by a small local business right here in New Zealand, Finery has taken cues from classic cocktails but shaken them up to be a little fancier. Each drink is made with honest, all-natural, local ingredients. Comprising aromatic botanicals, delicate fruit juices, teas and vodka, these refreshing beverages are best enjoyed as an accompaniment to fine food and good conversation.
Finery cocktails are free from sugar, carbohydrates, gluten and preservatives and unpasteurised. Each option contains five per cent alcohol (one standard drink), with vegan-friendly options. Flavours come in 5% or 0% alcohol options.
