What is in the Rim Dusts?

Our Rim Dust blends are made using natural ingredients wherever possible. We combine salt, sugar, real fruit powders and carefully selected spices or botanicals to create bold, balanced flavours.

We use real fruit to provide flavour and colour and do not use artificial flavourings. Because our products are made with natural ingredients and handcrafted in small batches in New Zealand, you may notice slight variations in colour or flavour from batch to batch.

How do I apply the Rim Dust

Applying rim salt or sugar is quick and easy. Simply moisten the rim of your glass using a lemon or lime wedge, or lightly dip the rim in simple sugar syrup. Then gently dip or roll the rim in your FN Lemons Rim Dust until evenly coated.

This creates a beautifully flavoured rim that adds both visual appeal and an extra burst of flavour to your drink.

How long will it take to receive my order?

We aim to ship orders the next business day whenever possible. Once dispatched, delivery is typically overnight within the North Island and 2–3 business days for the South Island.

Occasionally, there may be slight delays during periods of high demand while we prepare fresh batches of product, or due to courier delays outside of our control. We always do our best to get your order packed and on its way as quickly as possible.

How long will the garnishes last?

When stored sealed and kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, our garnishes have a long shelf life.


  • Dried citrus and Rim Dust typically last at least 12 months.

  • Dried edible florets typically last at least 2 years.

Because our products are made with natural ingredients and carefully dried, they can often last even longer when stored in good conditions.
