The best thing about being an apple farmer is that, unlike a ripe tomato, [an apple] doesn’t have to be picked right now. It can wait until tomorrow. It is a nice pace.”

Tonic Syrups
Owner Joanna Mouming is an organic food industry veteran who decided to start her own company after realizing that she wasn’t getting the taste she wanted out of super sweet gin and tonics.
Her tonic syrups are handcrafted in small batches, and made with natural ingredients to create the perfect additions to both cocktails and mocktails.
There are two fine flavors for you to enjoy:
Original Tonic Syrup (a blend of grapefruit, lemon, orange, lime, allspice) and Orange Fennel (featuring orange, fennel, and cardamom).
Visit Joanna’s website for a delightful recipe box full of craft cocktails and mocktails that will elevate your mixology game.
You’ll find classic combinations that are destined to become new favorites.
