Editors notes
A full-flavoured tonic, just not as sweet as a regular example. A flexible, light and dry way to showcase any good gin. 'Light' doesn't refer to the bitterness, just the level of sugar which weighs in at just 2.9 g/100ml. With subtle and complex botanicals it has all the elements a perfect tonic should, and it responds well to most garnishes. Superb bitterness, crisp mouthfeel, complex botanicals - without being overly sweet or in your face.

Australia
Australia's wine industry is a thriving part of the country's economy, contributing significantly to employment, production, export, and tourism. In fact, the industry is the fourth-largest wine exporter in the world, shipping out 760 million liters of wine to countries including France, Italy, Spain, and the UK. One of the key factors contributing to Australia's success as a "New World" wine producer is the formal export and marketing of its wines through Wine Australia.
Australia's wine regions are scattered across the south and southeast, with almost every state boasting its own vineyards. Victoria, for example, is home to an impressive 21 wine regions. Some of the most famous wine regions in Australia include Margaret River, Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Eden Valley, Clare Valley, Hunter Valley, Yarra Valley, and local regions to New South Wales such as Cowra, Southern Highlands, and Mudgee.
Australian winemakers are known for producing a diverse range of grape varieties, with Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Pinot Noir being among the most popular. They tend to focus on producing wines that are ripe, fruit-forward, and easy to drink, using modern winemaking techniques and equipment such as stainless steel tanks and temperature-controlled fermentation.
With its bold, fruit-driven flavors and reputation for quality and diversity, Australian wine has become a popular choice for wine lovers around the world. And with such a broad range of wine regions and grape varieties, there's something for every palate to enjoy.
Victoria
The wine region of Victoria has the highest number of grapevines than any other state in Australia. It is home to over 600 wineries and well-known regions such as Yarra Valley, Heathcote, and Rutherglen. Victoria is situated in the southeastern corner of Australia where due to the location, the climate has a cool maritime influence and is known for its outstanding Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, along with producing Australia’s most famed dessert Muscat and Topaque wines.
There are a number of different terroir levels throughout the wine region of Victoria which leads to the production of different ranges of wines. In the southern region of Victoria, the vines are regulated by the cool winds of the Bass Strait. Central Victoria consists of mostly flat terrain that tends to be drier and warmer than the rest of Victoria, which results in more fruit concentrated wines. It may be surprising to note that Victoria is the third most productive wine region in Australia, seeing as it does not have as many areas suitable for viticulture, which has resulted in the cellar door culture of Victoria being concentrated with smaller, but more personal boutique wineries.
About the brand StrangeLove Vitamin Co
StrangeLove was born in Byron Bay NSW where founders – James Bruce and Stafford Fox– developed a passion for organic produce and stumbled upon an old family recipe for a ginger elixir. They set about trying to put that recipe into a bottle utilising only organic ingredients and, subsequently, tried to get people to give them money for it! Before long, word of their delicious elixir had spread and StrangeLove ginger beer was all of a sudden being used by some of the nation’s most respected restaurants and bars. Pretty soon Bruce & Fox were being asked if they could offer other craft mixers and Strangelove was born.
With their ginger beer already available around the country, the company has launched four other varieties to bring the total range to five. Their eclectic range of five premium, organic sodas include The new flavours include: Lemon Squash; Bitter Grapefruit (50 per cent organic juice with piths and peels added for extra flavour and colour); Blood Orange & Chilli (39 per cent organic juice and a touch of cayenne pepper); and Smoked Cola (an old style recipe that is a little smoky, not overly sweet and contains Madagascan bourbon vanilla, citrus oils, cardamom, cassia, nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon); alongside the original Ginger Beer, which contains two types of ginger, green tea, yerba mate and cinnamon for extra kick. Stepping away from traditional flavours the new soft drinks also bear striking labels that reflect the brand’s determination to be different. Not only is the emphasis on sourcing local, organic ingredients, and prioritizing a high natural, organic fruit juice content over sugar. The sugar that is used is unrefined and organic too.
According to Fox the concept for the brand was developed a few years ago under the belief that consumers want something more adventurous than lemonade.
“Our drinks contain loads of organic fruit, plants and spices, and we don’t use any preservatives or chemicals in our beverages. Most impressively, our beverages have won over 50 international awards at the annual StrangeLove International Beverage Awards.
