What's In It?
The full recipe stays in the bottle. But here is what we can tell you.
Chilly Niseko is made with Habaneros sourced from Japan — not as a challenge, but as the foundation of an extraordinary flavour. Alongside fruit extracts, a carefully balanced sugar syrup, and natural flavourings, the result is a drink that earns its heat.
It doesn't compromise. If it needs sugar or expensive fruits to taste its best, it has them. No apologies.
What Does It Taste Like?
Spicy. Sweet. Warm. Cold. Familiar. Completely unlike anything you've had before.
The spice is real — this is Habanero — but it's met by a sweetness that arrives at exactly the right moment. The heat builds and the sweetness meets it. They don't fight. They dance.
People who don't like spicy food drink it. People who think cocktails are boring drink it. People who've had everything on every bar menu drink it — and order another.
Works Both Ways
Most mocktails are an afterthought — a diluted version of the real thing. Chilly Niseko is different. The non-alcoholic version isn't lesser; in many ways it's more. The flavour actually intensifies without alcohol, and it stands entirely on its own.
Add vodka, gin, tequila, rum — or add nothing at all. Either way, you're holding something that belongs in a category of its own.
How To Make A Chilly Niseko
1. Fill a tall glass or wine glass generously with ice.
2. Pour 60ml of Chilly Niseko Cocktail Mixer over the ice.
3. Add your spirit of choice — vodka and soda works beautifully — or leave as a mocktail.
4. Top with soda water or your preferred mixer.
5. Garnish with a fresh chilli, a slice of citrus, or both.
6. Serve immediately. No muddling. No fuss.
