Cocalero Original is a vibrant herbal liqueur inspired by traditional Andean plant culture, built around coca leaf and a blend of South American and global botanicals. Light, refreshing and gently sweet, it offers bright herbal notes with citrus, spice and green tea complexity — more approachable than absinthe and more aromatic than a typical herbal liqueur.
Designed for mixing, shots and modern cocktails, Cocalero brings an eye-catching green colour, exotic botanicals and smooth, energising flavour. Vodka-lovers, gin drinkers and cocktail bartenders all gravitate toward it for its versatility and unique South American identity.
Cocalero was inspired by centuries of Andean coca leaf tradition, where coca has been used culturally for energy, ritual and herbal tea. While the brand uses legal, food-grade extracts—not narcotic components—the flavour captures the fresh, herbal character of coca alongside botanicals like:
✅ Guaraná – natural caffeine & spice
✅ Green Tea – smooth, grassy notes
✅ Juniper & Ginger – gin-like clarity
✅ Citrus & Spice – balance and brightness
Low-temperature distillation preserves delicate aromatics, resulting in a smooth, modern herbal spirit designed for nightlife, cocktail bars and premium mixers.
