Free Gelato: Raspberry Banana Shake
Non-alcoholic smoothie sour from Funky Fluid's Gelato series, built on raspberries, banana and vanilla. Sweet, thick-bodied and closer to a milkshake than a beer.
About This Drink
The Raspberry Banana Shake takes the Gelato series into dessert territory with conviction. Raspberries and banana interact with the lacto base to produce something genuinely smoothie-like. It pours hazy pink and cloudy, with a light head that quickly fades. Banana arrives on the nose first: sweet and ripe, without the artificial edge that cheaper beers produce. Raspberry follows, sharper and fruitier, with vanilla warmth underneath. On the palate, banana provides body and sweetness while raspberry delivers tartness. The vanilla is subtle, threading through rather than dominating. It is sweet-forward, deliberately so, and the carbonation prevents it from sitting too heavily. The finish is cleaner than the richness suggests, with a berry and banana linger. It is a long way from a pint of bitter. As a dessert-style non-alcoholic drink in a can, it does the job well.
