Enjoy Liber & Co. Blood Orange Cordial in refreshing citrus-forward cocktails, as a vibrant addition to sparkling wine, or simply mixed with soda water over ice for a zesty non-alcoholic treat, perfect for warm summer afternoons or paired with light, Mediterranean-inspired dishes.

Nose: Bright, zesty aroma of fresh blood oranges with hints of raspberry. A subtle whiff of orange peel adds complexity. The scent is vibrant and inviting, reminiscent of freshly squeezed citrus on a sunny morning.

Palate: Juicy and intensely flavored. The initial taste is sweet, quickly followed by a bold tartness. Ripe blood orange dominates, with distinct notes of raspberry and a touch of bitter orange peel. The mouthfeel is smooth and slightly syrupy, but not cloying. A hint of salt enhances the overall flavor profile.

Finish: Long-lasting and refreshing. The tartness lingers, balanced by residual sweetness. A subtle bitterness from the orange peel emerges, adding depth. The finish is clean and crisp, leaving a pleasant citrusy aftertaste that invites another sip.

Liber & Co. Blood Orange Cordial is crafted by blending fresh-pressed juice from California Moro blood oranges with cold-pressed peel oils, natural fruit acids, and a touch of cane sugar to capture the fruit's full flavor spectrum. This meticulous process preserves the blood orange's vibrant color and complex flavor profile, resulting in a cordial that's both intensely flavorful and versatile for cocktail-making.

• The Blood Orange Cordial uses Moro blood oranges from Southern California, which develop their distinctive deep red color and complex flavor due to the region's dramatic temperature swings between hot days and cool nights.
• Unlike most fruit syrups, this cordial incorporates cold-pressed blood orange peel oils, capturing the fruit's entire flavor profile from juice to zest in a single bottle.
• The cordial's rich garnet hue comes from naturally occurring anthocyanins in blood oranges—the same antioxidant compounds found in blueberries and red wine—making it a visually stunning and potentially healthier cocktail ingredient.
