This is undrinkable unless you like a mix of vinegar and maple syrup. That is seriously what it tastes like. Until we can do better, I’m drinking the real stuff, I’ll just cut back.

Enjoyed the Ritual Zero Proof Rum, Whisky and Gin alternatives -- but the Aperitif Alternative tasted slightly worse than the cherry cough syrup I remember from my youth. The same chemically bitter t... See more

The whiskey alternative is horrendous and more so a Scotch alternative than a bourbon alternative. Super smokey on the noise, SWEET, and horrendously spicy for no apparent reason other than to emulate... See more

Ritual Zero Proof is not only a great…

Ritual Zero Proof is not only a great alternative to alcoholic drinks, but it's great for adding a little kick to any drink! We love adding it to our citrus drinks and topping it off with some sparkling water. So good!! It really does have a nice, smooth burn and smells very close to real gin, tequila, and whiskey. The branding is great and the bottles and labels are designed really well. We love seeing the ingredients listed on each bottle!

We had hoped that the whiskey alternative we bought would taste a little bit like whiskey based on the explanation of research that was written about the process of developing it. Unfortunately we didn't like it at all and threw it out. It was too spicy and burned the back of our throats. Even after using it to make several drinks instead of drinking it straight it was terrible. The idea was good and we really wish we could have liked something about it but it really tasted bad.

Good Product - Don't miss the headaches

Ordering and delivery are excellent. This was our second order. While I find I don't enjoy any of the beverages "on the rocks", they are excellent in cocktails. I actually like the gin alternative better than gin. Thanks for a great product.

I ordered the whiskey alternative

I ordered the whiskey alternative. The package arrived timely, the packaging was lovely, and there was a booklet of cocktail recipes included. I made some Old Fashioneds for my husband and I and we were pleasantly surprised by the flavor and warmth. My husband was even up for a 2nd round, which he rarely wants with other alcohol alternatives we've tried. Curious to try the other flavors.

I tried the whiskey

I tried the whiskey, but the hot peppers kill the taste for me, way too much influence from those--I added some sweet vermouth and that did not work either.
I will try the Tequila and the Gin, and one more try with the whiskey, but I don't like the taste so far--I am trying to cut back on my alcohol, but this does not appear to be the answer.

Great Stuff

Great Stuff.Wish I'd found it sooner. Not supposed to drink due to medication, but this is the beast substitute I've found.

This NA whiskey is awesome

This NA whiskey is awesome! This is the second one I have tried and I would highly recommend it to anyone. It shipped on time, packaging was great and it came with a recipe book. The whiskey itself has a caramel start with a peppery finish. The color is exactly like my husbands full strength whiskey. Can't wait to try other products.

I ordered the Gin and the Tequila and was very excited to try them. The shipping packaging was excellent, and the look and feel of the bottles are also excellent. The flavors were very challenging however - I have an eclectic palate and I was excited by the lists of ingredients, but unfortunately the Gin Alternative tasted too medicinal and the Tequila Alternative was too dry - felt like I'd inhaled dust somehow. I tried them straight, and I do plan to try them in cocktails, which may be much better, but the first impression was off-putting. I want these to be great - hopefully you'll continue working on the formulas.

Mocktail is so IN

So happy I found ritual! It tastes so good and it’s very refreshing! I’m pregnant and it’s great to still be able to make a cocktail and have some fun! Really want to expand my mocktail horizons and incorporate it into my life, even postpartum!

That Spicy Kick!!

Being pregnant, I’ve been missing tasty cocktails. The tequila alternative is insanely good for a spicy Paloma or Margarita! LOVE the spicy kick!!

I was so impressed with the ethics and honesty of your company. I accidentally ordered the sampler of your drinks and wrote back the next day to cancel. They had already been shipped so I wrote again and asked for instructions to return. You wrote back and told me you were giving me a full refund and to not worry about returning the products. I was shocked but so appreciative of the high road that your company takes.
I wish you all the success in the years to come.

Unexpected, but enjoyable.

This did not meet precisely what I was hoping for, but perhaps what I am looking for doesn't exist yet! I used to sip and shoot whiskey straight with a chaser and was hoping for something that could give me the similar tastes and sensations drinking that way as I am no longer able to drink alcohol due to medical concerns. However - I am in no way dissatisfied with the product and will absolutely use it as a mixer to create drinks with as intended! In that capacity it is a game changer. I will definitely restock and keep this Ritual Whiskey in my home. It gives me an option I didn't even think I had!
