Three different drinks
| Brand | What it is | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Seedlip | Distilled botanicals; dry, 0 g sugar, 0 calories | Tonic, soda and dry highballs |
| Ghia | A bitter aperitif from fruit juice and herbs | Spritzes, one part to three parts bubbles |
| Little Saints | Gin, whiskey and mezcal styles | Stirred cocktails: Negroni, Old Fashioned |
- Seedlip blends botanical distillates and extracts with water. There’s no sugar, so it’s dry and clean, and it needs a mixer to come alive. Four styles: Garden 108, Grove 42, Spice 94 and Notas de Agave.
- Ghia is built on grape, yuzu and plum juice with gentian root, elderflower and lemon balm, so it’s fruity up front and bitter at the finish, like an Italian aperitivo. Ghia’s own ratio is one part to three parts sparkling water, tonic or kombucha. Two flavors: Original and Berry.
- Little Saints builds spirit-style bottles from botanical extracts: St. Juniper (gin), St. Oak (whiskey) and St. Ember (mezcal). Each lists organic Lion’s Mane mushroom extract among its ingredients. They also come in 100 ml flasks.
Is it worth the price? Drinks per bottle
Price per bottle doesn’t tell you much when bottle sizes differ. At a 50 ml (1.7 oz) measure per drink:
| Bottle | Size | Drinks |
|---|---|---|
| Seedlip | 700 ml | 14 |
| Ghia | 500 ml | 10 |
| Little Saints | 750 ml | 15 |
| Little Saints flask | 100 ml | 2 |
Each card above shows the current price, so you can work out the cost per drink. Seedlip and Little Saints go further per bottle; Ghia is a smaller bottle made to be lengthened with three parts mixer.
