Wild Folk specializes in creating ready-to-drink, botanically brewed, zero-proof cocktails with locally sourced ingredients.
With more people choosing to drink less alcohol or abstain altogether, there is a growing demand for non-alcoholic options that are both sophisticated and flavorful. Botanical cocktails, which feature natural and herbal ingredients, are seen as not just a healthier alternative to alcohol-based cocktails but also a more grown-up version of sugary sodas or juices.
Founder, chef and restaurateur Dalia Koren channeled her passion for gardening and foraging into unique varieties like the honey-forward Bee's Knees with herbaceous angelica root, or The Bitter Tongue, an Amaro mixer with a kick that lives up to its name. And Wild Folk’s canned options offer convenience for on-the-go consumers who want a refreshment that’s easy to enjoy anywhere.
