KO Honey & Lemon Cider 330ml
Picture a Dawa. Now picture it as a cold, fizzy cider. That's basically this. Acacia honey gives it a soft floral sweetness, then a hit of fresh lemon and ginger snaps it right back so it never goes sticky on you. It's 8%, so it carries a bit more weight than your average cider. Crack one on a Friday night and you'll get it instantly.
First thing you get is honey, but the gentle, floral kind from acacia, not a sugar bomb. Then lemon comes through bright and zesty, with a warm little tingle of Kenyan ginger underneath. There's a whisper of vanilla and caramel rounding it off. Sweet up top, sharp on the finish, with a soft fizz that keeps the whole thing lively. Basically a Dawa you can drink from the bottle.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This is Kenyan Originals, the craft drinks crew who've been shaking up the local scene since 2018 (you might know them as African Originals). Everything happens in-house at their big Nairobi facility, from pressing the fruit to bottling, and they buy their honey, ginger and lemons straight from farmers around the country. The Honey & Lemon is their tribute to Dawa, that classic Kenyan honey-lemon-ginger pick-me-up. Real fruit, real honey, no syrups or concentrates faking the flavour.
