3 Simple Wilderton Botanical Spirit Mocktails

Wondering what to make with your new bottle of Wilderton non-alcoholic botanical spirit? We’ve got you covered with these three, simple, easy-to-make mocktail recipes that will wow your guests and please your palate. We’ve also got step-by-step YouTube video with each recipe here.

Wilderton Non-Alcoholic Spirit

We first heard about Wilderton while listening to BevNET’s Taste Radio. Brad Whiting and Seth O’Malley were already skilled beer makers who decided harness their talents and jump into distilling non alcoholic spirits. While we were in the Erewhon Calabasas store sampling our certified organic Margarita Mix, the demo table next to us was set up with a Wilderton display. Hooked on the the first sip, we brought some home and have been trying various mocktails ever since.

Wilderton Sour Recipe

As many of you already know, our Margarita doubles as a sour mix and makes the most amazing sour recipe. You have to try this combination if you’re a fan of tart, aromatic drinks.

Wilderton Sour
2 oz Wilderton Botanical Spirit
2 oz This Girl’s Margarita Mix
Lemon wedge garnish

Directions
Fill a rocks glass with ice. Combine the Wilderton and margarita mix, then garnish with a lemon wedge.

Wilderton New Fashioned

You are welcome to add bitters to this recipe, and you’ll definitely be able to find some that’s zero proof. However, we feel like the Wilderton recipe is already so aromatic that you really don’t need to add any.

Wilderton New Fashioned
2 oz Wilderton Botanical Spirit
1 sugar cube
Half an orange wheel
1 teaspoon simple syrup

Directions
Soak the sugar cube in the Wilderton and add the orange wheel. Muddle the sugar if necessary to speed up the dissolution. Press the orange slice a few times too if you’d like.

Wilderton Wave

You’ll love this take on the classic Mai Tai. It has the perfect balance of bitterness and sweetness.
