Onda
A long drive up the Sicilian coast, past lemon groves and dune grass. Salt air rolling in.
Coastal citrus aromatics with an extra dry finish. Flavor is reminiscent of Sicilian amaro—leafy green sage, citrus, gentle bitterness—with the crisp, refreshing character of a dry white wine. Explore our other flavors →
Serve cold. Everything else is optional.
We prefer to enjoy the cans as-is, but the bottles are carbonated a bit higher so we sometimes suggest pouring a bit into small, unfussy glassware. We especially like a highball, low tumbler, or Picardie.
Let the aromatics bloom as the temperature rises, and keep the bottle close so you can top off or share as you go.
Onda Highball
Start with your spirit of choice and ice at the bottom of your favorite small, unfussy glassware. Pour your soda down the wall of the glass, not directly over the ice.
We prefer the bottles for mixing, because they are carbonated higher but cans will do. Garnish with a lemon twist or a green olive.
We think Onda mixes particularly well with gin or vodka, for an extra-dry martini soda.
Martini Soda
2 oz dry gin or vodka · ¾ oz dry vermouth · Onda, to top
Garnish: lemon twist
Add spirit and vermouth to an ice-filled rocks glass. Top with Onda, and stir gently.
Margarita Soda
2 oz blanco tequila · ½ oz triple sec · 1 oz lime juice · ¾ oz agave syrup · Onda, to top
Garnish: lime wheel, coarse salt (optional)
Add tequila, triple sec, lime juice, and agave syrup to an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Shake until chilled. Strain into a rocks glass over fresh ice. Top with Onda, stir gently.
Our botanical sodas' extra dry taste profile make each of them inherently versatile for mixing. We have yet to find a pairing that doesn't work. However, we find Onda goes especially well with seafood like grilled fish, crudo, and linguine with clams.
