Ghia Sparkling Le Fizz

Ghia’s Le Fizz is my new preferred answer to the five o’clock question of what to pour when I’m not partaking in alcohol. It’s a ready-to-go sparkling non-alcoholic aperitif built on a herbaceous, citrusy-tart, juicy base of gentian root, elderflower, orange blossom, strawberry, and a handful of teas that give it bitterness and depth. It’s a pleasant melange of sweet, dry, and tart that feels closer to a pét-nat or sparkling rosé than a sugary soda. Crucially, it isn’t cloyingly saccharine, with just five grams of naturally occurring sugar and nothing artificial. Pour it over ice with a twist of citrus, kick back, and savor. Buy it.
