Confession: none of us had eaten a kumquat before this month.

Some of us had heard of it, others pass it by in the grocery store with curiousity. Then Jen finally grabbed a bag and we all stood in the kitchen eating them like grapes, skin and all.

That’s the whole point with these things: sweet peel, sour center. Backwards from every other citrus. That “wait, I actually love this” moment is why Kumquat Lemonade exists now!

Barely bigger than a grape. Almost as much vitamin C as an orange. And the peel, (the part you’d normally toss), is where a lot of the good stuff lives. Swipe for the facts that had us Googling kumquats at 11pm 🍊

Come try our new lemonade with fresh kumquats in each cup:
📍Eckhart Park Farmers Market, Every Saturday
⏰ 9AM - 3PM

📍 Logan Square Farmers Market, Every Sunday
⏰ 8:30AM - 4PM

Debated about posting this… but we want everyone out there (particularly our fellow small business friends) to be aware and stay safe

We were VERY fortunate and grateful for our neighbors for looking out for us

If our neighbor has not said anything, we may have not been able to open today

So neighbor, truly, thank you 🙏 We appreciate you

Hoping that we all continue helping and supporting our neighbors 🙏

✨Introducing: Our NEW Kumquat Lemonade 🍊🍋

It’s taken me a few months, but finally we have LEMONADE

This was a challenging project because… I don’t like lemonade (I know, this is a hot take)

For research purposes, I did (force myself to) try countless types of lemonades from all across the country

Pink lemonades, blue spirulina lemonades, even a random lychee lemonade (it was not good)

And finally, after MONTHS of trials, I created the ultimate lemonade

Kumquats are a naturally sweet/tart fruit, which makes them PERFECT for lemonade

As a fun flare, we have REAL kumquats at the bottom of each cup so you can eat the fruit too!

Anyways, I promised I would only sell things that I love and wow - I absolutely love this lemonade. I hope you do too 💛

It’s here for only a limited time so try it out!
