𝐋𝐢𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨. Bringing the spirit of Italian cuisine to the forefront, Limoncello combines zesty citrus notes with a hint of sweetness, creating a refreshing yet sophisticated flavor. Ideal for beverages and desserts, this flavor taps into the trend of vibrant, fruity flavors with a twist. As Gen Z and millennials continue to seek no-to-low alcohol alternatives, this lemony addition elevates any mocktail or sparkling tea. Limoncello offers brands a versatile flavor that can evoke both nostalgia and luxury, adding a splash of brightness to any product.

𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦. According to a Mintel consumer report, engagement and preference increases 78% among Millennials when nostalgic flavors are offered in modern forms.

This flavor caters to the continued demand for nostalgic treats that offer consumers a "little moment of joy."

𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐨 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐥. A unique blend of savory and sweet, Miso Caramel combines the umami depth of miso with the buttery richness of caramel.
