Yuzu Lime

Yuzu is the reason to pick this one. The Japanese citrus lands somewhere between a lemon, a mandarin and a grapefruit, and paired with lime it gives this can a sharper, drier edge than the fruit-forward flavors in the rest of the High Ground range. Underneath the citrus is the same formula the brand uses across the line. Five organic mushrooms, lion's mane, reishi, cordyceps, chaga and turkey tail, with GABA, L-theanine from non-GMO green tea, electrolytes from pink Himalayan salt and vitamin C from acerola cherry. A can is 25 calories with no added sugar, and it's vegan, non-GMO and gluten free. None of that reads on the palate, which is the point High Ground keeps making. Of the flavors, this is the one that behaves most like a proper alcohol-free aperitif, since the acid gives it enough structure to open a meal instead of just refreshing you.
