Fruit Liqueurs
Key to many classic cocktails, fruit liqueurs date back centuries as a way to preserve and concentrate the flavors of the annual harvest of tree fruits, stone fruits, berries and other varieties. The Rothman & Winter collection reflects three generations of producing liqueurs of exceptional character and authenticity. Each fruit liqueur starts with the fruit’s own eau-de-vie and juice, for intensity of fruit flavor. We bottle at higher proof and with less sugar to reinforce that intensity and maximize the number of uses for each fruit liqueur. Drink any of these liqueurs with sparkling wine or soda, or use them in simple cocktails. The lightweight, slimline bottle takes up less space on the bar, and may have the lowest carbon footprint of liqueurs in the market today.
