A Lunar New Year's Non-alcoholic Drink to try!
Welcoming the Fire Horse 🧧🔥
Lunar New Year – February 17, 2026
On February 17, 2026, we welcome the Year of the Fire Horse — a sign known for passion, independence, bold movement, and a little spark of wild magic.
The Horse symbolizes freedom, momentum, and adventure. Add the element of Fire, and you get a year that’s vibrant, expressive, and full of possibility. Fire Horses are said to be charismatic, energetic, and just a little bit daring — the kind of energy that inspires us to try something new, gather our favorite people, and celebrate big.
Lunar New Year is about renewal. Fresh intentions. Sweeping away the old and making space for good fortune, joy, and togetherness.
And what better way to celebrate than with something sweet, a little spicy, and perfect for sharing?
🔥 Fire Horse Fizz (Sweet & Spicy Lunar Blend)
This cozy, sparkling blend mimics the warm spice and citrus brightness of a well-known Canadian-branded Fireball whiskey — without the alcohol — making it perfect for a family gathering, festive brunch, or Lunar New Year dinner.
