About Sunbird
Sunbird is a juice cocktail made in Christchurch, New Zealand, by Where's Graeme Limited. Our first flavour, Sunbird Spiced Apple, blends 85% not-from-concentrate apple juice with a spiced cinnamon liqueur we make ourselves. Crafted for bold flavour seekers.
The legend of the Spice Islands
The Spice Islands were once home to the world's most sought-after spices. These remote volcanic islands drew explorers across oceans in pursuit of flavour. Long before becoming known to the rest of the world, the sunbird knew the allure of these legendary islands.
That's the spirit behind Sunbird: going further for flavour. We pair real New Zealand fruit with warm, exotic spice to make something vibrant, refreshing and worth the journey.
Real juice, not a shortcut
Most ready-to-drinks start from a malt base or a seltzer and add flavour later. Sunbird starts with the fruit. Pressed apple juice, not from concentrate, makes up 85% of every can, so the apple character is the heart of the drink rather than an accent.
Spice we make ourselves
The spiced cinnamon liqueur in Sunbird isn't bought off the shelf. We make it in-house, tuned to sit alongside pressed apple juice, so the spice supports the fruit rather than overpowering it. Read the story of our liqueur.
Made in Christchurch
Sunbird is made by Where's Graeme Limited, a Christchurch drinks company based at 16 Southwark Street. We're focused on full-flavour, no-compromise drinks, and we also make Soigné, a Canterbury Pinot Gris wine spritz. Sunbird is stocked at more than 20 liquor stores across Canterbury and Otago.
