There’s nothing quite like the turn of a season. Summer into autumn is my favourite shift of the year, the evenings pull in, the candles come out, and everything gets a little slower.

One thing that’s stayed constant through it all: @realalcoholfree. It’s been in my glass at every BBQ this summer, and now it’s what I reach for on an evening when I’m curled up on the sofa and want to properly switch off. 🥂

It’s a slow fermented sparkling tea, and it’s inexplicably delicious. Layered, a little unexpected, genuinely unlike anything else I’ve had. There’s something celebratory about it, whatever the occasion.

If you’ve never tried it, now’s the time. I’ve secured a code for you all, use HAYLEY20 for 20% off at realalcoholfree.com. You’ll also find it in your weekly shop at Waitrose, Tesco and Ocado 🍂

Introducing REAL Mei, our new winter limited edition, created with British artist @charlottemei_ 🥂

Inspired by the beauty of winter, Mei is slow fermented sencha tea with delicate jasmine and fragrant lychee. Our celebration of the season most of us dread, and named after the Chinese character for beautiful.

We raised the first glass at @holycarrotrestaurant this week, with Charlotte’s joyful artwork, wonderful company and a fermentation-led menu from @chefdanielwatkins paired course by course with REAL. Thank you to everyone who joined us!

Swipe for the best bits.

REAL Mei is available now for a limited time. Link in bio.

The cool-down nobody saw coming. 🤫

We caught a few of the class at @roar_fit_chalfont on their way out, poured some REAL Blush, and asked one simple question. Turns out it wasn't that simple.
What do you taste? Tell us in the comments below.
Find us in Tesco.

We asked. They tasted. Nobody agreed. 🤫

One sip of REAL Blush and everyone had a different answer. Which, frankly, is exactly how we like it.
Tried it? Tell us what you taste. We'll leave it for you to decide.

Find us in Waitrose.

Fermentation isn't a shortcut. It's the whole point.

Our sparkling teas are built on time: the time yeast needs to develop those complex fruity esters (hello - rhubarb, peach, grapefruit), and the time our bacteria need to build a rounded, balanced acidity instead of one sharp hit.

Rush it, and you get something thin and vinegary. So we don't rush it.

Slow fermentation costs us more. We think it's worth every extra day.

September is the reset January never quite delivers. 🍃

Diaries filling up. Back to routine. Reconnecting.

REAL is the slow fermented sparkling tea made for exactly this kind of season, a proper pour at the end of a full day, or a moment carved out before the next one starts.

Small habits, done well, make the busy days easier. 🥂

As the last of summer's evenings fade, REAL Blush is still leaving people guessing: some assume it's "just sparkling fizz," others swear there's no tea in it at all.

No two people agree on the flavour, but everyone comes back for a second glass.

Curious yet? Only one way to find out: try it for yourself today. 🥂
