At Tempus Tonics we handcraft organic Shrubs for creating sophisticated drinks and Daily ACV Tonics for everyday gut and health support.
Our Shrubs are a concentrated syrup made with our oak aged vinegars, fruits, herbs and sugar. Our shrubs are a delicious flavouring for all sorts of beverages. And you can feel good about drinking them, knowing they are made with all organic natural ingredients.
Our Daily ACV Tonics are unpasteurised organic apple cider vinegar – herb infusions that nurture good health and help support optimal functioning of body systems.
Taken each morning these tonics help start your day the right way, stimulating digestive function and providing a range of vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients.
At Tempus Tonics we are passionate about organics and passionate about the power of plants.

SHRUBS
Mixers for Sodas & Cocktails
A shrub is essentially a mixer that combines vinegar, plants (usually fruit), and sugar. Shrubs add both acidity and sweetness to a drink.
Shrubs have been made for hundreds of years. Being vinegar based meant that in the days before refrigeration it was possible to create long lasting fruit drinks that could be enjoyed out of season. This is our take on a traditional drink, providing unique and interesting options for your craft beverages.

CRAFTED BY HAND
Our Daily ACV tonics are crafted by hand in small batches, following long-established methods that herbalists have been using for centuries. We select herbs and fruits with specific qualities that support good health and well-being, many of these are grown ourselves.
Our ingredients are slowly macerated in raw organic apple cider vinegar for several weeks. This extracts beneficial vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients from the plants. After we strain our herbal vinegar, we add organic honeydew honey. This special honey is produced by bees that forage in native beech forests.
Finally, we bottle and carefully label this health-giving tonic, so it is ready to send to you.
