(Previously named Davidson Plum & Vanilla Shrub)
We've renamed this shrub to Ooray Plum & Vanilla, but the recipe is exactly the same.
‘Ooray’ is the indigenous name for this beautiful native rainforest fruit, sometimes known as Davidson Plum, but always was and always will be Ooray. There are other Aboriginal words for these beautiful fruits, Ooray comes from north QLD as does the variety of fruit we use.
Ooray are native bush food that look a bit like a plum and grow directly out of the tree trunk! We use only whole organic fruit - no powders or extracts.
Tangy, tart with a punch of bright red colour, we have added soft, sweet vanilla to this seasonal rarity. The resulting flavour is reminiscent of a traditional cream soda but with a native Australian twist.
We make this ooray shrub from the QLD variety of this fruit, Davidsonia pruriens, grown and harvested on Bundjalung Country, Northern NSW.
Benefits
A comparative study done by the RIRDC (Rural Industries Research and Development Corporation) of Ooray (Davidsonia pruriens) vs blueberries found that:
- the antioxidant capacity of Ooray was 2.7 times higher than that of blueberries
- lutein content twice that of Blueberries
- Anthocyanin content greater than Blueberries
- similar folate level
- similar Zn (zinc) level
- higher levels of the minerals Mg (magnesium), Ca (calcium), P (phosphorus), K (potassium), Mn (manganese) and Cu (copper)
- Na (sodium) levels 3.6 times lower
She’s a superfood, there’s no doubt.
How to use
Add 35ml of shrub to a 200ml of glass of sparkling water and ice for a refreshing bright pink botanical spritzer.

This is my personal favourite shrub. Such an excellent alternative to sugary drinks, especially for those on designated driver duty. The slight tartness with overtones of sweet, plus the subtle hint of vanilla, makes this my pick all year round! Thank you for creating such a great product!!
Gorgeous flavour combo and the BEST colour! Awesome producers and creators weaving their magic
Delicious in flavour and colour - this is my favourite - soda drink - alcoholic drink or simply splash on your breakfast musli & yoghurt for a zing!
This one is lush. My partner lives this one and I can now see why! It’s like drinking a pink lemonade- brings me back to my childhood, but good for you. Yum and delish 😋
I have many faves among the Pyewackets range but I come back to this delicious shrub again and again. It has such a refreshing, resonant flavour and the colour is out of this world. Delicious with lots of ice and mint.
