A Jammy Twist on a Classic Sour

The cocktails you know and love. Now with 0% alcohol. We believe choosing not to drink alcohol shouldn’t mean choosing between flavour and fun. That’s why we’re excited to introduce BATCHED 0% our delicious cocktails, now completely alcohol-free. Three of our much-loved cocktails have been reimagined for a 0% occasion: Strawberry & Rhubarb Sour, Lychee & Yuzu Martini, and Pineapple & Chilli Margarita. Each one is packed with the same bold, layered flavours you expect from BATCHED, with one important difference: there’s no alcohol. The secret is Goldenglow™ Our unique alcohol-free blend is crafted with botanicals and natural extracts to recreate the warmth, body and layered complexity of a full-strength cocktail. It’s what gives BATCHED 0% its distinctive character and helps transform each serve into something that feels every bit as special as the original. We’ve launched BATCHED 0% with three flavours, each bringing its own personality to the glass. Strawberry & Rhubarb Sour Fresh, fruity and beautifully balanced, our Strawberry & Rhubarb Sour brings together juicy strawberry and tart rhubarb for a cocktail that is both refreshing and indulgent. Blended with Goldenglow™, it has all the depth and character you want from a sour, without the alcohol. Simply shake with ice, pour and enjoy. Lychee & Yuzu Martini  Bright, zesty and seriously refreshing, Lychee & Yuzu combines juicy lychee with tangy Japanese yuzu for the perfect sweet-tart balance. It’s vibrant, exotic and effortlessly easy to love, with a crisp finish that keeps you coming back for another sip. Chill, shake and pour over ice for an instant cocktail moment at home. Pineapple & Chilli Margarita  Sweet meets spicy in this bold twist on a classic Margarita. Tropical pineapple brings the sweetness, while Mexican jalapeño adds a fiery kick, creating the perfect balance of heat, fruit and acidity. For the full Margarita experience, shake with ice and serve with a chilli-salt rim. It’s bold, spicy and definitely not boring. Why BATCHED 0%? Whether you’re taking a break from drinking, choosing 0% for the night, driving, hosting a mixed crowd or simply looking for something different, BATCHED 0%makes it easy to pour something that still feels like an occasion. And just like our original BATCHED cocktails, there’s no need to play bartender for hours. Simply chill, shake and pour. BATCHED 0%. All the cocktail. None of the alcohol.

Meet Jamaretto Sour – our take on an Amaretto Sour, reimagined with a jammy twist. Sweet almond flavours are layered with notes of strawberry, raspberry and pomegranate, while bright citrus brings balance for a smooth, modern sour that's equal parts nostalgic and refreshing. Familiar enough for lovers of a classic sour, yet fruity enough to bring something a little different to the glass. Like all Batched cocktails, it's designed to make great drinks effortless. "The beauty of Batched is that you shake and pour, and the perfect cocktail awaits." Simply add the Jamaretto Sour to a shaker with ice, shake for 20 seconds and strain into your favourite coupe or cocktail glass. Garnish with a fresh raspberry, a citrus twist, or keep it simple and let the cocktail do the talking. Perfect for entertaining or a cosy night in, the Jamaretto Sour is made for those moments when you want something a little indulgent without overthinking it. Sweet, tart and beautifully balanced, it's a playful take on a timeless classic. We're not the only ones enjoying it, either. The Jamaretto Sour recently caught the attention of NZ House & Garden, featuring in their August drinks edit under the headline "We're Jammin'". The magazine described it as: "A seasonal blend inspired by amaretto sour and whisky sour cocktails. With notes of strawberry, raspberry and pomegranate balanced by bright citrus, it sits firmly in the comfort-cocktail camp: familiar, indulgent and designed for easy entertaining at home." We'll happily raise a glass to that. Whether you're discovering the Jamaretto Sour for the first time or already have a bottle chilling in the fridge, it's a cocktail that proves some classics are worth putting a new spin on. 🍸     

On 1 August, we celebrated a milestone eight years in the making. The BATCHED Charity Ball brought together cocktail lovers, industry friends, partners and supporters for an evening dedicated to great drinks, great food and an even greater cause. Held at the stunning Grand Millennium Auckland, the event marked BATCHED's 8th birthday while raising funds for Save the Kiwi, helping protect one of New Zealand's most treasured native species. Over the course of the evening, guests embarked on a five-course cocktail degustation, with each BATCHED cocktail carefully paired alongside a complementary canapé. Designed as a journey through the BATCHED range, the experience showcased the stories, flavours and craftsmanship behind each serve, while offering guests the opportunity to discover new favourites along the way. As one of the first events of Auckland Restaurant Month, the setting couldn't have been more fitting. The team at Grand Millennium Auckland helped create a truly memorable experience, providing the perfect backdrop for an evening of celebration, connection and flavour discovery. A highlight of the night was the exclusive launch of our newest cocktail, Jamaretto Sour, the eighth addition to our 725ml collection. Guests were among the very first to experience its smooth blend of sweet almond, strawberry, raspberry, pomegranate and bright citrus notes. The evening also offered an exciting glimpse into the future of the brand, with a preview of the upcoming BATCHED 0% range. Attendees had the opportunity to sample Goldenglow™, our innovative alcohol-free blend designed to deliver the warmth, body and complexity of a full-strength cocktail experience without the alcohol. Beyond the cocktails and cuisine, the entertainment ensured the celebration lived up to the occasion. Live music set the mood throughout the evening, while authentic Brazilian dancers brought incredible energy and excitement to the ballroom, creating moments guests are unlikely to forget anytime soon. Most importantly, the event delivered real impact. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who attended, donated, bid in the charity auction, and helped make the evening such a success. As we reflect on eight years of BATCHED, we're reminded that our journey has always been about bringing people together. Whether it's sharing a cocktail with friends, celebrating a special occasion, or supporting causes that matter, those moments of connection are what inspire us every day. To everyone who joined us at the BATCHED Charity Ball, thank you for helping make it a night to remember. And finally, a special thank you to our event partners, sponsors, the team at Grand Millennium Auckland, and Panic PR for helping bring this milestone celebration to life. Here's to the next chapter. 🍸✨
