Hazy, golden straw color with light carbonation. The nose is filled with the scents of fresh lemonade with a caramel-touched Whisky note in the background. The palate echoes the nose delivering a fresh lemonade-driven core offering both sweet and tart lemon flavors with a dose of Whisky that adds body and a touch of vanilla.

Deep cola color with red accents and a healthy carbonation. The nose reveals classic Whisky and cola aromatics as the Whisky gives a subtle cherry quality.

Medium-bodied and perfectly balanced delivering pure refreshment. Add any citrus to further lift the flavors. $14.99 – 4 Stars
