Let the holiday fever linger with a delicious choice of tipples this month
A Savanna ain’t a Savanna without a slice of lemon in it, right? Introducing Savanna’s Limited Edition Angry Lemon, which promises that familiar crisp and dry cider flavour plus a touch of lemon zest. Available this summer at liquor outlets.
Nederburg’s 56Hundred range has added two new fruity additions to the family. Yummy passion fruit and grassy flavours in the Sauvignon Blanc, R42, and smooth berries in the Merlot, R48, available at supermarkets and liquor outlets.
Summer in a bottle, Robertson Winery launches its Lightly Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc. Created using Sauvignon Blanc grapes with tropical flavours, a dash of fizz has been added to tingle the palatte. R50, available from all liquor outlets.
Skinny Green Coffee claims to burn unwanted fat and boost your metabolism. Mornings just got more interesting. Ingredients like caffeine, evodiamine, and raspberry ketone work to boost the body’s levels, which means there’s more energy to burn calories.

Cool, calm & collected, the Shannon Vineyards Sanctuary Peak 2014 is a new Sauvignon Blanc from the Elgin Valley. Packed with fruit – think citrus, gooseberry, tropical fruit, asparagus and green pepper – there is also a touch of spice and it has great aging potential for the next five years. R105, www.shannonwines.com
According to Platter’s 2014 Wine Guide, “The Wolftrap is at the forefront of offering exceptional value for money”. With an already highly successful red and white wine on the market, it made sense to introduce its first rose. The Wolftrap Rosé 2014 is a blend of Syrah, Grenache and Cinsault, revealing red cherry and pomegranate fruit on a perfectly dry palate. R40, available from liquor stores.
For the ultimate after-dinner indulgence, Magnum Cream Liqueur is a combo of Single Malt Scotch Whisky and real Dutch Cream with hints of caramel, chocolate and coffee. Best served on crushed ice, it comes in a reusable stainless steel flask. Available in 750ml flask, R109 and 1-litre flask, R129 from liquor outlets.
