What is a Shrub?

A shrub is a tangy, refreshing drink made by combining vinegar, fruit, and a bit of sugar. Originally used as a way to preserve fruit before refrigeration, shrubs have made a comeback as a bright, complex base for modern cocktails and mocktails. At Oil & Vinegar, we make it easy by offering a variety of fruit vinegars that eliminate the need for a long syrup-making process, giving you all the flavor with none of the hassle.

  1. Create your own shrub cocktail using one of our flavored vinegars.
