Item Description

Sunset Magazine calls INNA, "Pure jam perfection!" INNA Jam + INNA Shrub makes fresh, seasonal jams from organic fruit sourced within 150 miles of our Emeryville kitchen.

By sourcing produce directly from local organic farmers we're able to get the best possible fruit - fruit that's picked ripe and is absolutely fresh. Our single-varietal jams are crafted so that each fruit varietal's unique essence and natural subtleties shine through in bright flavors. A jar of jam contains fruit from a single source! We don't mix fruit, we don't add herbs, spices or flavorings - INNA jam tastes like the freshly picked fruit from which it was made, each jar a time capsule of flavor.

Shrub has a long tradition as a refreshing beverage going all the way back to the Colonial Era, but it actually originated a thousand years ago in the Middle East! Like our jams, shrubs are an excellent way to preserve the harvest of our gorgeous fruit when it is at it's most perfectly ripe. In making our shrubs we use the whole fruit (not just the juice), and cold-cure the shrubs to maximize depth and complexity of flavor. The vinegar and sugar both help to preserve and capture the fleeting fruit flavors while balancing each other out to make a sweet-tart syrup that a perfect base for a drink. Shrub is essentially a fruit-vinegar-sugar syrup. Mixed with sparkling water it's the most refreshing drink we've ever had. Of course, it's also great in cocktails.
