Zero Sugar · Real Cocktail Balance
Zero-sugar cocktail mixer. Bright lime. Real cocktail balance.
We bring bright lime, balanced sweetness, acidity and body together in one pour. Use our nonalcoholic, sugar-free margarita mix with tequila, shake it with gin or rum, or add sparkling water. In our house recipes, Cordial Craft takes the place of separate lime juice and sugar syrup.

The balance behind the pour
Bright lime. Balanced sweetness. Zero sugar.
We build citrus brightness, balanced sweetness, and body into one ready-to-pour mixer. In our house margaritas, gimlets, and daiquiris, Cordial Craft takes the place of separate lime juice and sugar syrup. Add your spirit and make it yours.
The Skinny Margarita Problem
Skinny should mean something.
Many skinny margaritas do not remove the sugar. They simply replace orange liqueur or simple syrup with agave. Monin’s current Organic Agave Nectar label lists 6 g total and added sugar per 0.25 fl oz, so a 0.75 oz pour contributes 18 g sugar before the lime juice or any other sugar-containing ingredient is counted.
18 g
of total and added sugar from 0.75 oz Monin Organic Agave Nectar, based on the manufacturer’s current online label.
Agave’s health halo can be misleading. A lower-glycemic reputation does not change a product label’s calories, Total Sugars, or Added Sugars. The measured pour and current label determine what the ingredient contributes.
About the comparison
The example uses Monin Organic Agave Nectar’s current online Nutrition Facts: 25 calories and 6 g Total Sugars, all added, per 0.25 fl oz. Multiplying three labeled servings gives 75 calories and 18 g sugar for 0.75 oz. Monin advises checking the physical bottle because online information may change.
A skinny margarita that earns the name.
- 2 oz tequila
- 0.75 oz Cordial Craft
- Approximately 131 calories and 0 g sugar for the build shown
- No separate lime or syrup
- Shake hard with ice and serve
The bar gets a faster build. Both estimates use the same 80-proof unflavored tequila with 0 g sugar: about 213 calories and 18.5 g sugar for the agave recipe shown, or about 131 calories and 0 g sugar for the Cordial Craft recipe shown. Different ingredients or measures change those totals. Alcohol still contributes calories.
Built From Lime Character
Lime flavor is more than squeezed juice.
We use real lime flavedo and modern super-juice techniques to build bright citrus aroma, balanced acidity, sweetness, and body into one zero-sugar cordial. More lime character. Less prep. Better cocktails.
Our cordial replaces the usual lime-juice-and-simple-syrup combination with one measured pour. Start with your favorite spirit and let the cocktail take shape.
