What Exactly is a Shrub?
In terms of drinks, a shrub is typically a non-alcoholic syrup made of a combination of concentrated fruits, aromatics, sugar, and vinegar. At Nelson Olive Oil, we keep it super simple by simply adding a dash of our flavour infused balsamic vinegar to some sparkling water. The result is a sweet and tangy concoction that transforms sparkling water into a refreshing, zesty drink!
