Climate Week is a momentous occasion for advocating change, and we believe that even small actions can make a big difference. While the discussions around sustainability, renewable energy, and conservation are essential, we believe that even in the midst of serious discourse, there’s room for a toast. That’s why, in celebration of Climate Week, we’re introducing a delicious zero waste cocktail recipe concocted by our friends at Spare Tonic that not only tantalizes your taste buds but also pays homage to the environment.
It is their take on a classic Spanish drink called “Tinto de Verano” which is typically made with red wine and a lemon flavored soda.
Let’s come together during this Climate Week, not only to discuss the challenges we face but also to raise a glass in solidarity with the global movement for a more sustainable and resilient planet
