Three Spirit Non-Alcoholic Alternative Spirit - The Social, 50cl | Mood making with, Adaptogens, Cacao, Damiana & Lion's Mane | Multi-Award Winning Active botanical, Gluten Free & Vegan Drinks

The nightcap drink is excellent. I think some of the reviews and ratings are a little unfair. Yes I do think it’s a little pricey but it definitely delivers on the euphoria I experience and I get a great nights sleep. The valerian root doesn’t always have an effect on some individuals but this is a great tasty alternative to alcohol any day of the week for me.

As a dedicated Whisky drinker I noticed recently that there arent many alcohol free options open to a malt fan. I decided to sample some of the options out there. 1st things 1st.... this is not Whisky nor intended as a whisky replacement. It is however a drink that can be poured into your fav whisky glass and enjoyed in an evening. My thoughts; On the nose, Gingerbread, earthy, roots xmas spice. 1st Sip, instant realisation of smooth mouthfeel, with burst of earthy gingery flavour Finish, an amazing Ginger afterburn, enjoyable, lengthy & more-ish. So that was my 1st taste of an alternative spirit, I have to say i'm quite impressed and poured several of these one after the other into my Glencairn. I am a big fan of sherried malt whisky and have tasted a vast range of pricey malts over the years. Keeping an open mind about alternatives seems an interesting area to explore. I realise that there will likely be a lot of reviews with people instantly disliking non alcoholic alternatives but I think if you keep in mind this is in a genre of its own, its not trying to be anything, in fact due to its plant based composition I think it really is verging into its own territory of drink. I should note that I had a great sleep the evening after sampling, something that this bottling markets as an advantage hence the name Nightcap, was that a coincedance? I dont know but the botanists who put this together seem to claim it assists sleep. I think my initial thought with purchasing somethings so different to my usual whisky tipple was this: Was I purchasing a bottle of juice? after my 1st sip and noticing the thicker consistency It definitely isnt juice, it feels more special, more luxurious. Overall I would say this is in a category of its own and tbh I quite like it. In fact im keen on trying the other products from this company. As with all things every individual will have their own taste preferences, I happen to really like Ginger so naturally I would warm to this drink due to its Gingery notes and mild afterburn.

Being a frequent weekend drinker with a busy work schedule I thought it was time to try something new that wouldn't leave me with a 3 day hangover. In summary, I'm sorry I bothered. The box for my 3 spirit drink arrived nicely packed in shredded brown paper. Holding it above my head to the light and looking through the dark glass I could see a dimly glowing mixture welcoming me in. Alas it was a Thursday and having work at 7am the next day I decided to hold off given the promised effects of feeling "A little floaty and flirty from damiana, tulsi and cacao that combine to lift spirits and reduce inhibitions. After three doses, you'll be the life and soul of the party." Saturday afternoon arrived so enough however and I had a BBQ planned. Finally no more hangovers I thought as I lifted the dark bottle down from my shelf and cracked open the seal. I tentatively poured out a shot into a tall shot glass and admired the dark pond water appearance. I then sniffed it and enjoyed the unusual aniseed aroma and drank it in one. The taste wasn't completely unpleasant, it was somewhere between sambucca that has been sitting in the sun for a while and prune juice but neither the less it wasnt great either. I continued to set up the bbq awaiting social excitement and lower inhibitions but after 10 mins decided that perhaps I needed to meet the recommended 3 doses so went back and drank 2 more shots. Half an hour later my friends began to arrive and I proclaimed I'd found the answer to our hangover problems proudly showing them my new bottle. Noone else wanted to try it. But knowing genius isn't always appreciated in its time I stuck to my guns having another 2 shots along with a burger. Eventually I felt a little upbeat - im not sure if it was the fact I was over half a bottle deep or a placebo given the sum of money I paid. So I took another shot for good measure. Unfortunately by 7 pm my friends were certainly much more merry than me so I decided it was time to finally call this experiment to an end and go and buy another tonic. Buckfast tonic wine it was called. As soon as that juicy nectar hit my tongue I rapidly became the life and soul of the party. The very effect I had been trying to achieve for the last 6 hours. And at a fraction of the price. Perhaps the Benedictine monks have divine intervention on their side - Im sad to say three spirits do not. Thanks for the experience guys but won't be trying again

I wish this was either less expensive or came in a bigger bottle, but otherwise I am a fan of this product. It certainly has a different taste to it (not amazing, not terrible - the ginger is evident), so I like to mix it with some cranberry juice. What I love about this drink after consuming it is how it makes me feel which is: I feel good and truly energized. But not in a hyper, energy-drink way. It feels healthy, like natural energy, which I think is what most people are looking for. I know everyone is different, but I haven't found another product that gives me such a great boost that also feels healthy and doesn't leave a negative after effect (sugar crash, tired, hungry, etc.). That's why I continue to purchase this product and would definitely recommend.

Fünf Sterne, trotz des Preises

Social is my favorite, I’m in sales and I drink it through the day to want to talk to my customers. It’s such a great drink I always have it stocked up and I’ve gotten so many people to try it and everyone loves it. Makes you silly and laugh. Just makes life better. I’m pregnant so I can’t have it right now and I can tell you I miss it more than anything else :)

My friend recommended it. It’s ok, but not worth the price. I can’t say I feel anything of significance. These are three very small bottles!!

I recently tried an alcohol substitute elixir, and while it tasted fine, it completely failed to deliver on its promises. I expected it to provide a similar relaxed or flirty feeling to alcohol, but it didn’t give me the slightest buzz. For the price, which was comparable to a nice bottle of alcohol that would typically last me 2-3 months, this was a complete waste of money. It felt like I paid a premium for a glorified flavored beverage. I will not be buying anything like this again and can’t recommend it to anyone looking for an actual alcohol alternative. Save your money.
