FAQ

USE

How do I use Rootside Mixers with my SodaStream or club soda?

It's super easy! Just add 2 Tbsp. of our Mixers to a glass and top up the rest with sparkling water from your SodaStream! It's about a 1:5 ratio, but just make it how you like it!

If you want to make a full bottle at one time, fill the SodaStream bottle up with cold water (the colder the better!) to the max fill line on the bottle, carbonate the water as normal and then top up the rest of the bottle with Rootside! Seal and gently rotate to mix. Open the lid slowly so it doesn't get foamy! Pour over ice and enjoy!

GENERAL QUESTIONS

How long does Rootside Mixers last?
Unopened they'll last for a year. Once opened, please store in the fridge and use within 8 weeks.

However, we've had plenty of bottles last way longer than that, so like any other food you keep in the fridge, just do a visual/smell check to see if anything has gone off, if it looks and smells fine than it probably is. 

How does ordering online work?

You can place an order for delivery to your home through our online store. All orders are shipped via Canada Post or we delivery ourselves locally within 20km of our facility.

Do you have a tasting room?

We do not have a tasting room...yet. ;)

A bottle broke in my shipment. What now?

Send me an email! (quinn@rootside.ca) as soon as you see an issue with your order. We will either refund the cost of the bottle, or replace the bottle in question. Please attach a photo so that we can investigate the issue further. 

WHOLESALE

Can I buy your products for my bar/restaurant/liquor store?
