Pure Citrus. Simple Ingredients. Handmade Goodness.
Fresh, bright, and alive. This is our kitchen-bench lemonade, made with real NZ lemons, organic raw cane sugar, and a touch of lime juice and lemon zest. That's it - no water, no added anything whatsoever. It tastes like sunshine and summer afternoons.
This is true lemonade. Not a squash, not a cordial - just juice, zest and raw cane sugar.
The Craft Behind the Bottle
Our lemonade starts with freshly squeezed New Zealand lemons, blended with organic fair-trade raw cane sugar, a splash of lime juice and a whisper of lemon zest. Just four honest ingredients, carefully balanced to let the citrus lead.
We've left out water, left out all the additives, and kept the sugar level at 'just enough' so it's naturally vibrant and refreshingly crisp. Lightly sweetened and beautifully clean on the palate, it leaves room for the lemon’s natural flavour and tang to shine, creating a drink that’s uplifting rather than cloying.
Simply add water, still or sparkling, and pour yourself a moment of uncomplicated joy.
Whether it’s shared on a warm evening, poured over ice on a summer afternoon, or enjoyed as an everyday ritual, this is lemonade made for lovers of real food.
Handmade. Honest. Bright.

Why choose Hakanoa?
Made by real humans
(Who Love Ginger)
Hakanoa began in a home kitchen with fresh ginger, big ideas, and a love of doing things properly. What started as small-batch brewing for friends grew into a family-run business rooted in real ingredients, traditional methods, and a sense of fun along the way.
Every bottle is still made with care, curiosity, and a hands-on approach — crafted to bring warmth, flavour, and a little joy to everyday rituals.
Need help?
Our concentrates & syrups are made here in Auckland. We work with Aromatics in Takanini, using recipes developed originally in Hakanoa Street in Grey Lynn.
All Hakanoa products are pasteurised and safe to be stored at room temperature unopened. Syrups can be stored for 3 years and gingers beers for 2 years before their flavours start to fade. Best in a dark cool cupboard if you have one.
All Hakanoa products are preservative-free. Our concentrates must be refrigerated after opening and used within 3 months.
