Addition was founded in early 2012 by Matt Hemeyer and Eric Salenski with the express goal of bringing spicy and savory flavors to beverages everywhere – out of your spice rack and into your drinks for imaginative mixed drinks!



Addition Cocktail Spice empowers you to create beverages that taste exactly the way you want them to. Explore the savory richness of cumin or the floral, prickly heat of Szechuan pepper. Combine unexpected flavors like Thai green chili and tarragon or clove and habanero. Add cinnamon to a can of cola or rosemary to your sparkling water. Addition wants to encourage you to experiment and have fun with all of their products, to customize your drinks to suit your exact taste, and most of all, to enjoy beverages with a wide new range of flavors that you may not have experienced in liquid format before.



Their Cocktail Spice was so popular they developed Beer Sauce® too. Now you can turn a regular can of beer into something special with their Original, Smoky or Extra Spicy Beer Sauce®. All Addition products are proudly handcrafted in Seattle’s Georgetown neighborhood leveraging traditional maceration processes and using whole spices and fresh herbs and peppers.
