Franka Drinks, based in the serene landscapes of southern Sweden, is a small-scale producer passionate about creating exceptional alcohol-free beverages. The company was founded by siblings Steffi and Per, along with Steffi’s partner, Efe. This family-driven venture began when Steffi, during her pregnancy, sought delicious non-alcoholic alternatives. Finding only limited options in Sweden, the trio embarked on a journey to craft their own.
Their flagship product, the Franka Nordic Aperitif, is a testament to their dedication. This drink captures the essence of the Nordic forests with a complex blend of juniper, lingonberries, and citrus notes, layered with Nordic botanicals like Icelandic moss and conifere. It’s perfect for social gatherings or as a sophisticated pre-dinner drink. The Nordic Spritz, a ready-to-serve delight, combines the Nordic Aperitif with their custom tonic, highlighting citrus flavors to enhance the aperitif’s natural notes.
Franka prides itself on using all-natural ingredients, including locally sourced lingonberries and blueberries, southern Swedish rhubarb, combined with Italian bergamot and bitter orange as an hommage to classic Italian bitter apéritifs. The production takes place in a small, dedicated facility that specializes in alcohol-free beverages, ensuring each batch meets the highest standards.
