Innovative Newcastle Brewery, Modus releases Modus Tepache, a Mexican-style drink with a recipe steeped in Mexican history and culture.
A favourite across Central and Northern America, Tepache is a fermented beverage slightly milder than Kombucha, that combines pineapple and cinnamon to create a crisp, refreshing and wholly new style of alcoholic beverage.
With sustainability in mind, all ingredients used in Modus Tepache are 100% natural and sourced directly from Aussie farmers; with all elements of the pineapple used in the production of this zesty little number.
A Traditional Recipe Rooted in Mexican Culture
Tepache traces its roots back to ancient Mexican civilizations, with a history that spans centuries. This drink is believed to have been consumed by the Aztecs and Mayans as a sacred and celebratory libation. Its preparation was a laborious process involving the fermentation of pineapple rinds, cinnamon, and often piloncillo (unrefined sugar) to create a beverage that was both refreshing and mildly alcoholic. Tepache quickly became an integral part of Mexican culture, consumed during festivals, and religious ceremonies, and as a symbol of hospitality.
Sustainability
Modus is committed to preserving the authenticity of this Mexican beverage while also adhering to its core values of sustainability. All the ingredients used in the production of Modus Tepache are 100% natural and sourced directly from Aussie farmers. Modus’s dedication to sustainability extends to every aspect of its production, including ensuring every part of the pineapple is utilized.
