Tasting Notes


Let’s talk about Tang. Yeah, the powdered beverage mix. Fun fact: one serving has 100% of your daily recommended value of Vitamin C. Though, when I remember drinking it in like, 1996, I already had listened to “The Graduation Song” 1,500 times per day. That was enough Vitamin C for me. È! Orange is basically the wine incarnation of Tang - citrusy with tangerine peel, a little chalky with tinges of sea salt and honey, and a zephyr of blossom-y vibes. OK, that sounds much more nuanced than a dissolvable OJ-inspired drink endorsed by mischievous orangutans. But you get my point. Bold, acidic, fruity, and biting. Tang, take your orange-adjacent granules and step aside - È! Orange is the real kick in a glass. Sorry, I had to.

Pair With:


Going down an intense rabbit hole of wacky food and drink commercials from the 90’s and early 00’s along with some lemony shrimp scampi pasta, or crispy buffalo cauliflower drizzled with dill-y ranch.

Funk-o-Meter


This one has customizable funk (!) based on how much you shake it. The bottle recommends that you do, I recommend that you do not, but no matter what - you gotta do you.
