The “cedro” (citron in English) is large citrus fruit with a thick pith that is used widely in Southern Italy in desserts and cakes. This drink gets its delicious citrus aroma and flavour from an infusion of Calabrian citron from Diamante. It is bright and refreshing with a hint of sugar sweetness and the lingering flavour of the citron fruit.

The name translates to “dark foam” and the flavour of this bibite is both unusual and yet familiar as it is inspired by the classic Italian soft drink chinotto. Baladin has gone back to the traditional recipe using and infusion of Ligurian myrtle-leaf orange (the chinotto fruit), the pink part of the rhubarb root and orange zest.

This is the way a real cola should taste. An infusion of kola nut from Sierra Leone, with brown sugar and lemon juice. No artificial colours, flavours or preservatives. An authentic, refreshing cola aroma and flavour.
