From Sparrow’s non-alcoholic cocktail list, A Trip To Garden Grove is a bright, garden-fresh zero-proof drink built with the same care as anything off our cocktail menu ($12). This is the one that proves the designated driver finally wins: a real craft cocktail, no compromise, no buzz.
About A Trip To Garden Grove
We build A Trip To Garden Grove with Seedlip Garden, Seedlip Grove, lime, basil, cucumber, and lemonade. Seedlip is widely recognized as the world’s first distilled non-alcoholic spirit, and we use two of its expressions here. Seedlip Garden 108 brings a herbaceous, verdant character built around peas, hay, hops, spearmint, rosemary, and thyme, while Seedlip Grove 42 layers in bright citrus from blood orange, bitter orange, ginger, lemongrass, and lemon peel. Fresh lime, muddled basil, and cool cucumber tie the garden and the citrus together, and a splash of lemonade rounds it all out. It is genuinely zero proof, so everyone at the table can order with confidence.
Tasting Notes
The result is crisp, herbal, and citrus-forward, with the cool snap of cucumber and basil up front and a tart lift from lime and lemonade on the finish. It drinks bright and refreshing, the kind of glass you want in hand on the four-season patio when the sun is out.
What to Pair It With
A herbaceous, citrusy zero-proof cocktail loves fresh, vibrant food. From the Sparrow menu, enjoy it with the Tuna Tartare, the Burrata Avocado, or the Spring Arugula Salad. At weekend brunch it is a natural alongside Chilaquiles or the doughnut holes.
