When summer finally arrives in Quebec, we don't waste any time.
Patios are overflowing. Windows are rolled down. Campfires are rekindled. Someone's blasting music too loud by the lake while another already claims to master the BBQ after two sunny days.

Québécøl's Spritz Boréal tastes exactly like that moment.

It's our very Quebecois version of returning to life after months of shoveling, scraping windshields, and watching snowbanks melt with the impatience of a bear craving vitamin D.

Each ingredient tells a piece of summer here.

Rhubarb kicks things off with its lively and tart side, like the first truly hot days when everyone comes out at once. Then come Quebec strawberries — sweet, juicy, dangerously summery — tasting of farmers' markets, snack bars, and sticky fingers after a day in the sun.

And just when you think you know where the cocktail is headed... the melon steps in. Refreshing, light, almost cheeky, it tastes so much like vacation.

A touch of mint then blows a cool breeze over it all, like an impromptu dip in the lake after getting too hot in the sun.

The result?
A cocktail that seems to have captured the first three weeks of Quebec summer in a bottle.

Made entirely from maple alcohol, this Spritz Boréal is deeply rooted in our terroir. Not a postcard tropical summer. A real Quebec summer. Short, intense, a little chaotic... and far too enjoyable for us to be reasonable.

Drink it well chilled, on ice or with bubbles, on a patio still warm from the day's sun, at the cottage after a swim, or by the pool while someone says for the 14th time: "We should do this more often."

And because we love working with local people, our ingredients come directly from Quebec producers:
strawberries from Fraisière Bellevue,
rhubarb from Ferme du Fond du 2
and melons from Les Jardins d'Etc.

100% local.
100% Quebec summer.
And honestly... far too easy to love.
