Absolutely loved this, bought for my friend for a present as she just had a baby and loves aperol. She can drink it with or without the prosecco pending on when she's breast feeding. Such a beautiful colour spritz that looks gorgeous on her kitchen bench.

Our story
Our Italian Aperitif is our take on aperitivo hour. We blended blood orange, pink grapefruit and lemon zest with rhubarb and orange bitters for that classic bittersweet backbone, then lifted it with native lemon myrtle for a bright, distinctly Australian finish. It contains no alcohol at all, and it's built to be mixed. Fill a big glass with ice, pour 40ml, top with 100ml of our De-Alc Sparkling Lilly Pilly and a splash of soda, and finish with a slice of dried orange. That's the POLKA Spritz. Or keep it simple with soda or tonic and a twist of lemon. Either way, it brings all the colour of aperitivo hour to the table.

The POLKA Spritz.
Made for
Aperitivo hour
Olives, something salty, 5pm light.
Dinner parties
A round of spritzes for the table in five minutes.
Long lunches
Big table, bigger glasses.
Made properly, in South Australia.
Real wine first
Our sparkling starts as South Australian wine, made like any other, before the alcohol is gently removed by low-temperature distillation.
Native botanicals
Lilly Pilly, Davidson Plum, pepper berry and finger lime give each drink a flavour you won't find anywhere else.
12 months to get it right
Our first sparkling took a year of development and a blend of 11 white varietals. Every drink since has had the same patience.

Just arrived, looks amazing!
Enjoying my non-alcoholic sprits!
Nice flavour
Loved it! Bought for dry July but would still use the Aperol
I love this product , no alcohol, I pour over ice and mix with zero sugar tonic water, delicious and refreshing
I never thought I could enjoy a non alcoholic beverage like I’ve enjoyed my Polka. Wanting to keep my lifestyle clean as alcohol and me DO NOT work well, leaving me with brain fog for days. Researched the web and came across Polka, so I thought I’ll give it a go and haven’t looked back. The sparkling wine is sooo delicious and bubbly and my new absolute favourite is the Limoncello spritz with a dash of the Blood orange & rhubarb aperitif!!! No more brain fog!! WOW!!! Thank you Polka for a fantastic non alcoholic drink with clean ingredients 🙌🏻☺️
Delicious non alc alternative, already ordered more !!
Great. I thoroughly enjoy it. I buy the Lynes non alcoholic one too. They do have a reward system that is very good
Nice and refreshing
Way too sweet
Delightful summery drink
I think it’s a fantastic product
Love this! I feel like I’m having a real treat - an aperitif before dinner. Yum
I think it’s delicious. I wish you could buy it in a store as well ✔️
The flavour is not for me unfortunately… It doesn’t taste like blood orange or rhubarb, or a spritz! It is more like medicine I remember from when I was a kid. I love lots of the other polka flavours but this one doesn’t do it for me. Taste before buying if you can in case you’re the same!
I am so happy that I found you Polka! Since I stopped having wine during the week you have been a very refreshing beverage😜.
Saves a lot of alcohol when socialising.🙏
Couldn’t be further away from an aperitivo. Was really sad about this. Smells like toilet cleaner and just tastes like a random lemonade. What a bummer :(
Delightful
My absolute favorite go-to drink for summer, just like having an aperol spritz but better!
👍
Love the packaging, bottle shape and colour of the aperitif. It's a gift that hasnt been given yet so dont know how it tastes. Ive also ordered the Limoncello for the same person
This is really lovely - it has a sort of alcohol taste to it, so I still feel like I’m drinking
Really enjoying the flavours
I found this product to be the perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavours, mixed with your sparkling it was a delicious spritz style drink! Perfect for a little pick me up when I would usually drink something alcoholic. Loved it!
Absolutely delish! Love this one, taste just like a naughty cocktail. Will be ordering again!
Lovely as a refreshing drink.
Little bit sweet for me
Polka it has been so nice to arrive at a family party and have them share a bottle. I have not drank Alcohol since my Teens. Lee
Great taste. Love it mixed with a low sugar tonic.
I find this delicious and perfectly pairs with the Lilly Polly sparkling. I am really enjoying going alcohol free and Polka has become my favourite
It has a nice fresh taste to it different to what I originally thought it may taste like.Very enjoyable will be extremely nice on a hot summer's night.
Great taste! Refreshing and festive. Fantastic way to reduce alcohol days!
Really nice product, tastes like the real thing. Will order the wine next
Excellent quality non-alcoholic Aperitif! I always look 4ward 2 my late a’noon Polka w tonic (no sugar) & lemon! 👏💖
So exciting 2 receive my new box of Polka Italian Aperitif! I have a glass most nights, @ the end of a work day. W no sugar tonic & a slice of lemon or lime - perfect! 🤩 🍸 🥰
Pls c previous reviews - excellent products! Small family business. 👏🥰
Bit hard as I still have not received it. It has spent 7 days in Sunshine VIC. They may want to update the locations if their products in SA as I tried Renmark and there wasn’t any in stock and nothing on shelves to say they actually stock it in the first place.
I luv it! Enjoying it even more than the botanical spirit. Gr8 flavour! 👏💖
