    The Difference

    Why We Make Refreshers the Hard Way

    Most refreshers come from a concentrate base shipped from a warehouse. Sugar, citric acid, “natural flavors,” and freeze-dried fruit garnish poured into a cup. That’s the corporate standard. We don’t do that.

    Every morning, we steep fresh rosemary into our lemonade base — slow, off-heat, so the flavor comes through. We use real lemons. When we make a Strawberry Lemonade Refresher, we add real strawberry purée. Not “strawberry flavor.” Not freeze-dried strawberry pieces floating in syrup. Real fruit.

    It takes longer. It costs us more in ingredients. But the drink tastes like the ingredients on the label — because that’s all that’s in it.

    That’s why we can sell our Rosemary Lemonade for $2.99 and our Strawberry Lemonade Refresher for $4.49, and they’re still better than the $6+ versions at the big chains.

    ✓ Real lemons, squeezed fresh
    ✓ Real strawberry purée — no freeze-dried filler

    Questions

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is a Refresher?
    A Refresher is a cold, fruit-forward, lemonade-based drink — lighter than soda, brighter than juice. Frato’s makes ours fresh every morning with real lemons and real fruit, not from a concentrate base.
    Are Frato’s Refreshers made with real fruit?
    Yes. Our Strawberry Lemonade Refresher is made with real strawberry purée, and our Rosemary Lemonade is made with fresh-squeezed lemons. No freeze-dried filler. No artificial flavor substitutes.
    What’s in the Rosemary Lemonade Refresher?
    Fresh lemons, real rosemary (steeped fresh every morning), simple syrup, water, ice. That’s it.
    What’s in the Strawberry Lemonade Refresher?
    Our rosemary lemonade base — fresh lemons and real rosemary — blended with real strawberry purée. No artificial flavors, no freeze-dried fruit.
    How much do Frato’s Refreshers cost?
    Rosemary Lemonade Refresher is $2.99. Strawberry Lemonade Refresher is $4.49. Honest prices, made-from-scratch quality.
    Do Frato’s Refreshers have caffeine?
    No. Our current Refreshers are caffeine-free, making them a great option for kids, families, or anyone who wants the fruit-and-lemonade experience without the buzz.
    Are Frato’s Refreshers kid-friendly?
    Yes. No caffeine, no artificial colors, real ingredients. Parents can read every ingredient on our menu.
    How are Frato’s Refreshers different from chain Refreshers?
    Most chain refreshers are built from a concentrate base shipped from a warehouse, with freeze-dried fruit garnish. We make ours from scratch every morning with real lemons, fresh rosemary, and real strawberry purée — in our Schaumburg kitchen.
    Where can I order a Refresher near Schaumburg?
    Frato’s Culinary Kitchen at 628 S. Roselle Rd in Schaumburg. Order online for pickup or visit us in person.
    Can I order Refreshers online for pickup?
    Yes. Place your order through our online ordering system and we’ll have it ready when you arrive.
    Is the Mango Refresher available yet?
    Not yet — it’s in development. We’re testing recipes and will launch it when it meets our fresh-ingredient standard. Join Frato Points to hear about new flavors first.
    What does “hand-made daily” mean?
    It means we make every batch of our Refreshers from scratch in our kitchen each morning. We don’t open a jug of concentrate and pour. We squeeze, steep, blend, and chill — every day.
