The Naturæ Spirits Ready to Drink line brings together three Italian craft cocktails that are already balanced and ready to serve: Il Conte – Negroni, Basilisk – Gin Basil Smash, and A6M Zero – Aviation.
Three interpretations of contemporary mixology, all sharing the same base: Naturæ Gin Fructetum London Dry Gin. However, each recipe develops a different aromatic profile, from the bitter intensity of the Negroni to the herbaceous freshness of the Basil Smash and the floral notes of the Aviation.

Which Ready to Drink should you choose?
The three recipes are designed to offer different aromatic experiences.
- Choose Il Conte if you love Negronis, classic aperitifs, and intense, bitter profiles.
- Choose Basilisk if you prefer fresh, herbaceous, and citrusy cocktails.
- Choose A6M Zero if you are looking for a more floral, delicate, and aromatic cocktail.
Ready to Drink means a cocktail already prepared
A Ready to Drink is a cocktail that is already mixed and balanced. There is no need to measure out the gin, liqueurs, vermouth, bitter, or other ingredients in the recipe separately.
Simply chill the product, pour it into the appropriate glass, and finish serving with ice or garnish as suggested.
This allows for simple, consistent service at home, during an aperitif, at events, or in hospitality and professional settings.
A common base: Naturæ Gin Fructetum
Il Conte, Basilisk, and A6M Zero all share Naturæ Gin Fructetum, the Italian craft London Dry Gin from Naturæ Spirits, as their base.
Fructetum is made with seven botanicals: juniper, orange peel, bergamot, rosehip, apple, coriander seeds, and cubeb pepper. Its citrusy, fruity, and spicy profile is interpreted differently in the three recipes.
- Il Conte: Fructetum with Red Vermouth and Bitter.
- Basilisk: Fructetum with basil and lemon.
- A6M Zero: Fructetum with violet, Maraschino, and lemon.
Fructetum was awarded Best Italian London Dry Gin at the 2022 World Gin Awards.
