SYRUPS THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE

In collaboration with Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria, we have added to our award winning range of Shrub Syrups showcasing botanicals foraged from the Royal Botanic Gardens in Melbourne. 5% of all proceeds from this range will be donated to Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria to raise money towards the continued conservation and research undertaken by the gardens.

The collaboration between The Curious Cabinet and Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria champions a shared value of engaging the community in sustainability and conservation.

what is a shrub syrup?

Shrub Syrups are based on an old-world recipe combining the flavours of fruit, apple-cider vinegar, and sugar. Originally used as a way of preserving fruit, (prior to refrigeration) Shrub Syrups have become a popular ingredient in bars across the world as a delicious and intriguing cocktail and mocktail ingredient.

recipes and serving suggestions

The new Botanic Gardens series can be enjoyed in a range of recipes, from simply mixed with soda water for an enjoyable alcohol-free drink, or shaken up in a cocktail.

They also taste great with gin, and in particular Anther Distillery’s Florescence Gin – another exciting Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria collaboration.

shared values for sustainability

The collaboration with Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria champions a shared value of engaging the community in sustainability and conservation. Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria’s collaborations are an established way of raising funds and further engaging the community and increasing awareness of the work they do. These collaborations assist in achieving their mission to safeguard plants for the wellbeing of people and the planet toward a vision where all life is sustained and enriched by plants.

Having recently won a Bronze Medal in the 2023 Clean and Conscious Awards for best low-waste food product, we are so excited to be joining forces to raise money for a cause central to our sustainability philosophy as a small business.
