Shake up Dry July with ETCH Sparkling’s sugar-free alternatives

Dry July doesn’t have to be boring, and ETCH Sparkling have you covered with a series of deliciously unique flavoursome beverages.

Although we live in a region rich with delicious wines, there comes a month each year where many choose to go without booze to show support for a good cause, or just to take a break and reset. With Dry July kicking off in just over a weeks time, now is the time to get your fridge stocked up to set yourself up for the best chance of success.

Introducing ETCH.  ETCH Sparkling is the perfect option for those who are cutting back for Dry July or focussing on a healthier lifestyle and looking for a sophisticated, sugar free, adult beverage option that gives you the same sense of ritual, without the skipping on your health goals.

ETCH is the acronym for Every Time Choose Health, and the ethos behind the brand is all about social inclusion.  While many people think about which wine or beer to serve with a meal or at an event, often those choosing to drink less or not to partake will be left with the less exciting options of water or Lemon Lime & Bitters.  Those conscious about their sugar consumption will be excited to learn that the PLM and ZST flavours are sugar free and their HNY is made using a small amount of natural raw honey. The delicate food friendly flavours are naturally derived from the selected native Australian fruits and herbs. The drinks are also free of preservatives in fact there is nothing artificial in sight!

Prior to the creation of ETCH, Co-founder Jason Quin spent over 20 years working in the wine industry.  Together with his wife Andy, they enjoyed hosting dinner parties and eating out but after Jason’s decision to stop drinking, they observed there was a gap in the market for delicious, food friendly alternatives to alcohol during social and dining occasions.  They found the options that were on the market were often loaded with sugar or too overpowering in taste.

Made using native Australian ingredients, these delicious sparkling beverages will allow you to enjoy the party and wake up feeling as fresh as a daisy the next day. Ticking all the boxes, ETCH is low in sugar, has no preservatives, no artificial additives and of course, no alcohol.

The decision to use native Australian ingredients was a natural choice as the botanicals used are sustainably farmed and grown in regions of Australia where they naturally thrive without the need for pesticides or irrigation. 

Currently, there are three deliciously unique flavours:

ZST Finger Lime, Lemon Myrtle & Rosemary (sugar free, vegan friendly)

PLM Davidson plum, Riberry & Strawberry Gum (sugar free, vegan friendly)

HNY Honey & Rosewater *(raw natural sugars from honey)

You can find ETCH Sparkling beverages in fridges at Chapleys Foodlands Norwood, Henley, Saints, Pasadena, Frewville, Romeo’s Foodlands across the State and a number of progressive restaurants, wineries, pubs and cafes.   Check the website to find a stockist near you. www.etchsparkling.com.au
