Drømme Calm
Drømme Calm is a non-alcoholic botanical spirit built around ripe melon, warm ginger and molasses, with a layered blend of herbs and adaptogenic botanicals. The flavor is rich and rounded, with mellow fruit up front, ginger adding warmth and spice, and an earthy, bittersweet quality underneath. It has more weight and depth than many botanical spirits, giving it a satisfying presence in the glass.
Why We Love It
Calm has been a top seller at Cheeky & Dry for good reason. It has enough depth and complexity to be genuinely satisfying simply poured over ice, and we especially love it as an evening sipper. It feels rich, interesting and a little unexpected, making it a great choice for someone who wants a non-alcoholic spirit that doesn't need much done to it.
How to Drink Drømme Calm
For an easy serve, pour 2 oz Drømme Calm over a large cube and sip it slowly. It's one of the bottles we think is particularly good all on its own. If you want a longer drink, add ginger beer and a squeeze of fresh lime.
Cheeky & Dry Signature Serve — Fireside Calm: 2 oz Drømme Calm, 4 oz hot apple cider, and ¼ oz fresh lemon juice. Warm gently together without boiling, pour into a mug and garnish with a thin apple slice and a cinnamon stick.
Pair it with: aged Gouda, toasted walnuts, apple and cheddar tart, roasted squash with sage, or a square of dark chocolate.
