Moonstone Raspberry Sake

Sake is a traditional rice wine from Japan, although it's more a beer than a wine. It is made by fermenting rice that has been polished to remove the bran. The difference being in beer and in most East Asian rice wines, starch is first converted to sugar which is then fermented to alcohol, where as in wine, alcohol is produced by fermenting sugar that is naturally present in fruits, like grapes. But there is a difference in the brewing process of beer and sake despite the similar starch to alcohol process. that is, unlike beer where start to sugar and sugar to alcohol are created in two distinct steps, sake is produced in one single fermentation process.

Sake is the national beverage of Japan and is served in special ceremonies, gently warmed and served in small porcelain cups called sakazuki.

Grenadine

Grenadine is a common non-alcoholic pomegranate syrup with a characteristic deep red colour. It is a very popular cocktail ingredient, used for its pomegranate flavour and more for its ability to add a reddish to pink tint to a cocktail.

The name Grenadine originates from the French for pomegranate, which is grenade.

Grenadine is not subjected to regulations like alcoholic beverages are, and there are no region specific formulae any more, and thus manufacturers often replace pomegranate with blackcurrant juice and other fruit juices while retaining the same flavour profile.

Many producers now use artificial ingredients like high fructose corn syrup, water, citric acid, sodium citrate, sodium benzoate and food grade red colour along with natural and artificial flavours.
