Orange & Spice Shrub Producer|Mauricio GonzalezShrub is a kind of ancient, zero alcohol beverage made from a mixture of fruit, vinegar, and sugar that dates back to the late 15th century, when it was first used as a preservative for the export and import of fresh fruits. The producer, Mathilde Cousin, is the daughter of the legendary Loire grower, Olivier. So fittingly, this shrub is made only from the highest quality organic vinegar, derived from his wine. Highly concentrated, the best way to
smoke and anise to beautiful effect
