A Sip of Spice: Ginger Drink Tasting with Root2Ginger

Since 1707, Fortnum & Mason has championed the exceptional work and time-honoured making methods of talented artisans around the world. Earlier this year, we added a new chapter to that storied history, by launching a search for the UK & Ireland’s very best new and undiscovered food and drink producers.

And now, after an impossibly competitive and very delicious judging process, we’re delighted to introduce the winners of our first Open Call – each of which will soon be found on the shelves at Fortnum's.

About Root2Ginger:

We are proud to work with one of our Fortnum & Makers, Root2Ginger.

Root2Ginger Drink Mix is packed with cold-pressed from 100% natural, organic and ethically-sourced ingredients – including Peruvian ginger root, raw sugar cane, organic hibiscus and Sicilian lemon juice – these deliciously authentic drinks are made, bottled and labelled by hand in Manchester, and inspired by founder Deanne's Caribbean heritage.

About this session:

Step into the world of bold, refreshing flavour with our exclusive ginger drink experience. You’ll have the chance to taste the vibrant range of Root2Ginger blends from: Root2Ginger Fiery, Root2Ginger Spiced, Root2Ginger Mint and Root2Ginger Sorrel. Each crafted to showcase the spice, warmth, and versatility of ginger in unique ways.

But this isn’t just about sipping—it’s about discovering. You’ll gain behind-the-scenes insight into how these ginger drinks are produced, learn about the ingredients that make them so special, and explore creative ways to incorporate Root2Ginger into multiple drinks and recipes, from energizing daytime refreshers to evening cocktails.

We’ll be joined by Root2Ginger’s founder, Deanne Black. With her passion and expertise, Deanne will guide you through the tasting and share her journey in bringing these authentic ginger creations to life. This is your opportunity not only to taste but to learn directly from the pro herself.

Whether you’re a ginger enthusiast, a curious foodie, or simply looking for a fun and flavorful experience, this event is the perfect way to sip, learn, and celebrate the zing of ginger.
