Bring Barmy to the Table This November
Seasonal punches, returning favorites, and sodas worth celebrating.
November is all about gathering. Whether it’s a full Thanksgiving dinner, a cozy Friendsgiving potluck, or a spontaneous Sunday meal with family, Barmy belongs at the center of the table – whether it be in a can or a punch bowl.
Whether you’re a home host, bartender, or shop stocking for the season, here’s what’s pouring this month.
🍒 Cranberry Lime is Back!
Our beloved winter seasonal returns just in time for festive tables and sparkling drink menus. Barmy Cranberry Lime blends real cranberry juice and citrus for a tart, zippy soda that’s bright in flavor and color. It’s perfect for holiday dinners, office parties, and stocking stuffer 4-packs.
This limited-run flavor is available November 15th through February ( or when supplies run out!), so whether you’re grabbing it for your fridge or your retail shelf, now’s the time.
✨ Serve it:
With rosemary syrup and vodka as a holiday spritz
In our Spiced Cranberry Punch (see recipe below)
Over ice with an orange twist for a zero-proof classic
Available in 12 oz cans, by the case or 4-pack.
🍦 Cream Soda for the Sweet Moments
Our Barmy Cream Soda is smooth, vanilla-rich, and made with real cane sugar. It’s a classic that’s easy to love—and even easier to serve.
Perfect for:
Root beer or cream soda floats at family dinners
Pairing with holiday pies and baked goods
Espresso soda creations at cafes or brunch bars
Gift boxes, dessert bundles, and nostalgic holiday sets
Wholesale tip: Set up a “float station” with ice cream and sodas, or pair Cream Soda with your bakery’s seasonal offerings.
🥂 Punch Perfect: Recipes for Gatherings
Whether you're setting up a drink station for a dinner party or hosting a retail tasting, these punch recipes are guaranteed crowd-pleasers. One sparkles with citrus and bubbles. The other brings warm spice and cozy depth.
