St Hildie's founding women believe that you can live a clean life but still have a cocktail with friends. Nothing on the market aligned with what we consumed each day. So, we started making our own drinks, with 5% alcohol, no added sugar, all real, functional ingredients and tinctures of beneficial herbs and roots. We then created a meaningful brand, with eye-catching designs, and a deep backstory around our muse, St Hildegard Von Bingen. We’ve won multiple Spirits Awards, and are available at Whole Foods, Erewhon and Bevmo. We have a SoCal Whole Foods mandate and are clearing out inventory regularly at demos & events. We signed our first major distributor, Morris, and are in negotiations with additional distributors.
