Firefly Tonics

I tried some drinks by Firefly Tonics when I was in London several months ago, and they were really delicious. I was happy to see these products in Whole Foods the other day in the US– looks like they’re getting their American distribution figured out. Firefly Tonics are made by a few expert herbalists with over 25 years experience who’ve teamed up with a couple quirky mixologists. They currently have 5 flavors, and although I haven’t tried all of them based on my first sample, I’d bet they’re all good. I’ve been enjoying Chill Out, a mix of apple juice and black currant. The herbalists did their job and blended in lemon balm, bitter orange, ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, and rosemary. Needless to say the drinks are unusual and innovative. The packaging also gets my nod of approval — beautifully executed.
