Tasting Notes

About:

£29.99 for a 12 Pack. A multiple award winning brand of non-alcoholic cocktails by Mocktails Uniquely Crafted. For every day and easy use from the can or in a glass. Nitro Mockarita – The Vida Loca! Is a combination of filtered water, sugar, lime juice, bitter orange, quillaia, citric acid and ascorbic acid.


Appearance:
Cloudy Lemonade
Nose:
Straight away you get a lot of lime and orange, an instant reminder of summer. There is an aroma of something agave-esque in the works with this, enough to make you think this is something made for you in a bar.
Palate:
Initially sour as any Margarita should be, then more of this gentle orange and some floral botanicals.
Finish:
Slightly drying and still very floral with freshly cut grass, lime juice, soft sweetness.
Comments:
I really like this! Fresh from the fridge either in the can or in a glass with ice would make my day. There is enough flavour in this to make you think it’s alcohol driven, but you can enjoy all the flavours without the consequences of drinking. Also, in these dark months of January, it offers a little glimpse and flavour of sunnier times!
