As part of the event, which will feature more than a dozen local producers from the mountain range, we will present the first low-alcohol cocktail created by L\u2019Olivera: the Collserola Spring. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wanted to create a cocktail that would pay tribute to Collserola and peri-urban agriculture, while also aligning with the trend of low-alcohol beverage consumption,\u201d explains Can Calopa\u2019s sommelier, Mar Adan. The drink combines the \u201cFlors de Collserola\u201d vermouth from the Rabassaires project, orange juice, xarel\u00b7lo grape must from Finca Parera, and the sparkling wine L\u2019Olivera Reserva. \u201cOn the nose, it\u2019s bitter thanks to the orange and the vermouth; however, on the palate, it\u2019s creamy, sweet, and fruity. This combination makes it a smooth and refreshing cocktail, perfect for summer,\u201d notes L\u2019Olivera\u2019s collaborator and friend, I\u00f1igo Haughey.  <\/p>\n<p>This cocktail proposal emerges in a context of declining alcohol consumption in society. According to the 2023 study on the perception and consumption habits of alcoholic beverages among young Spaniards conducted by 40dB, more than 53.6% of young people aged 18 to 30 report having reduced their alcohol intake. And according to the latest (2024) report from the IWSR (International Wine and Spirit Record), the market for non-alcoholic and low-alcohol beverages is expected to grow by more than 3.9 billion euros.  <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/olivera.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-15-at-18.10.05-1.jpeg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-31329 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/olivera.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-15-at-18.10.05-1-300x200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/olivera.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-15-at-18.10.05-1-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/olivera.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-15-at-18.10.05-1-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/olivera.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-15-at-18.10.05-1-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/olivera.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-15-at-18.10.05-1-1536x1023.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/olivera.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-15-at-18.10.05-1-600x400.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/olivera.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-15-at-18.10.05-1.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cCollserola in Bloom,\u201d a day in support of local products:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The day will begin with a locally sourced breakfast prepared in collaboration with the De Collserola producers\u2019 association, featuring vegetables from the cooperatives La Rural de Collserola and L\u2019Ortiga, cheese and truffles from Les Escales, and honey and mat\u00f3 (Catalan fresh cheese) from Melvida, among many other products. \u201cL\u2019Olivera\u2019s project \u2014and especially Can Calopa\u2014 has always maintained a strong commitment to local communities and the environment,\u201d notes Can Calopa\u2019s director, Lluc Pej\u00f3.
