Zingi Bear is an organic switchel producer based in the Lake District. 

Founder Laurie is all about flavour. A trained cheesemaker and brewer, he is obsessed with great tasting food and drink. A few years wiser, and several rounds later, he seeked a healthier alternative treat, one that still hit the spot - the only problem was what?

Soft drinks have needed to up their game for some time, so we started playing with the best natural and organic ingredients to create something special that did just that.

Better tasting, better for you.

Whilst having a lot of fun experimenting / fermenting / blending / brewing, we discovered an old-school style of drink called a 'switchel' - A super thirst-quenching beverage, once drunk by thirsty farmers as an elixir by day, and then as a mixer for spirits by night. This is what we had been searching for! All the flavours sat so well together - a zing from the apple cider vinegar, backed-up by ginger and lemon, then rounded out with honey. 

Simple, delicious + beyond refreshing.

'Zingi Bear' (from the latin for ginger 'zingiber' - and how we thought it sounded) is our take on that drink. Made with responsibly sourced organic ingredients - taste first / no compromises.
