A sparkling Italian soda made with real bergamot from Calabria: the sublime citrus that gives Earl Grey its fragrance.

• From the best bergamot: Calabria's Reggio province grows the most premium bergamot and is considered the gold standard of this aromatic fruit.
• Floral and balanced sweetness: Bergamot's complex aroma is layered with part grapefruit, part orange blossom, part lavender, and lightly sweet to balance the bitterness.
• No artificial flavors: Made with authentic bergamot juice, not essence or synthetic flavoring, for a Calabrian taste.

For the sophisticated soda drinker who's bored with standard citrus flavors, and for anyone who wants the essence of Earl Gray in a refreshing soda rendition.

Origins

Bergamot (Citrus bergamia) is a small, green-yellow citrus grown almost exclusively along a narrow coastal strip of Calabria in southern Italy, where the microclimate, warm days, cool nights, and sea air, produces the distinctive aromatic oils that are added to black tea to make Earl Grey tea. La Dolce Vita captures the juice of this rare fruit in a sparkling format, bringing Calabria's most distinctive export directly into the glass.

Taste: Floral, Citrusy, Fruity, Fizzy.
