The Pitch
Bethan Higson and Alice Galsworthy walked into the Den in 2025 with a non-alcoholic ginger infused aperitifs. They were asking for £60,000 (received 90,000) in exchange for 5% of the business.
The pitch landed well enough in the Den that at least one Dragon decided to back it.
The Deal
A deal was struck on the show. Steven Bartlett offered £60,000 (received 90,000) for 5%, and Bethan Higson and Alice Galsworthy accepted.
It’s worth noting that Dragons’ Den deals agreed on camera often go through further negotiation off-screen. Some complete as shown; others are renegotiated or never finalise at all. The company’s subsequent trading history is the clearest indicator of what actually happened.
What Happened After the Show
Mother Root Ginger is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. The business has now been trading for around 9 years since the pitch.
Is Mother Root Ginger Still Available?
