KO Cider Passion & Lime Can 330ml
Crack it cold and you get a hit of ripe passion fruit, then lime swoops in to cut the sweetness before it gets cloying. It's juicy and bright without tipping into syrupy soda territory. Pour it over ice on a hot afternoon, slot it into a braai lineup, or keep it for a chilled night when you want flavour but not a big heavy beer. At 4.5% it's the sociable kind of can: one more is never a bad idea, and we'll have the next round at your door fast.
The nose is pure passion fruit, that tropical, slightly floral jammy thing, with a green-apple lift behind it. First sip is sweet and fruity, then the lime kicks in and tightens it all up so it finishes clean and tangy rather than sticky. The bubbles are lively and it drinks light. Think real fruit, not fake candy: it's made from actual Kenyan purple passion fruit and hand-squeezed lime, so the sweet-tart swing tastes like the fruit, not a flavour packet.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
KO stands for Kenyan Originals, the cider line from African Originals. The whole thing started around 2016 with founder Alexandra Chappatte, who walked away from a big drinks-company marketing job and began pressing real Kenyan fruit into cider out of an old shipping container. It grew into a proper Kenyan craft outfit (now a certified B Corp) that buys fruit from local farmers and makes everything in-house. So this can is genuinely homegrown: Kenyan passion fruit, Kenyan hands, Kenyan story.
