Pentire Adrift (a coastal Cornish no-alcohol spirit drink)
Pentire Adrift is a wonderful no-alcohol cocktail from Cornwall, made with coastal botanicals and sold in sustainable packaging. Created with the world’s best bartenders, this is ideal for outdoor living. The taste is sublime, thanks to the unique climate, air moisture and soil PH in this beautiful part of the world.
The drink is a herbaceous treat, made with key botanicals of:
- Rock samphire
- Headland sage
- Lemon citrus
All alcohol-free drinks contain a little booze (0.5%). So it’s recommended still to avoid for pregnancy/nursing.
Rinse then recycle bottles (caps can be left on, machines separate them). Recycle corks in bulk at Recorked.
What is rock sampshire?
This is a wild edible plant sustainably harvested from the Cornish coast (often growing out of rocky crevices). It tastes like a blend of carrots (which it’s related to), fennel and citrus with a salty punch. It was historically eaten by sailors to prevent scurvy, due to being rich in vitamin C and minerals.
Rock samphire should only be sustainably harvested by experts (it looks similar to highly toxic hemlock).
How to serve Pentire Adrift
Pour 50ml into a highball glass filled with ice, and top up with light tonic. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary and/or lemon peel. Once opened, keep the bottles in a cool dry place and use within 12 weeks.
