Mother Root makes ACV-activated non-alcoholic aperitifs that serve you up a dose of good feelings.
We’re here to redefine what it means to drink well and feel good by creating flavour-full, strong (not soft) drinks that are actually good for you.
So many non-alcoholic drinks are light on flavour, high in sugar or are made with a long list of complicated ingredients.
Mother Root does the opposite.
Fiery and fresh, Mother Root Ginger is our original feel-good, non-alcoholic aperitif.
Inspired by age-old methods of aperitif wine making – maceration, blending and sweetening for balance – we use apple cider vinegar, ginger and honey to make a complex, bold and totally unique drink.
The feel-good aperitif that helps you unwind without the alcohol.
Welcome to your new end-of-the-day ritual.
