Our story

Built behind the bar.
Made for real life.

Root Elixirs makes sparkling, flavor-forward cocktail and mocktail mixers for people who want the drink to feel finished without spending the night making it. Real ingredients, layered flavor, and a beautiful pour in seconds.

From behind the bar

Hospitality taught us what makes a drink memorable.

Root Elixirs grew out of founder Dominique Gonzales’s years in hospitality, where the best drinks were never complicated just to be complicated. They were balanced, thoughtful, and made the person holding the glass feel cared for.

The part that didn’t translate home was the prep: fresh citrus, syrups, specialty ingredients, and half-used bottles. Root Elixirs was built as the shortcut to that same considered experience—sparkling mixers with layered flavor that make a simple pour feel complete.

Today, every flavor is made to work beautifully with a favorite spirit or completely on its own. The point is the same either way: a drink that feels special without asking much from you.

What goes into every pour

Good drinks should feel considered, not complicated.

We care about the same things we cared about behind the bar: ingredient quality, balance, and the feeling of handing someone a drink that is already complete.

01

Real ingredients

Fruit, citrus, botanicals, and flavor combinations with dimension—not candy-sweet shortcuts.

02

Layered flavor

Designed to taste finished straight from the can, whether you add a spirit or keep the pour zero-proof.

03

Hospitality, built in

A few seconds of pouring. More time at the table, on the couch, or actually enjoying your own party.

Bring the care of the bar into real life.
A drink that feels finished. A host who gets to stay at the table.

That’s the whole idea: less prep, no performance, and a genuinely good drink that still feels thoughtful when life is happening around it.

Made for the way people actually gather

From Tuesday pours to full tables.

Root Elixirs is for the easy drink after work, dinner with friends, a celebration, or the person who wants something zero-proof that still belongs in the good glassware.

Better nights start with an easy pour.

Pick a flavor, add a spirit if you want one, pour over ice, and get back to the people you poured it for.
