Hiyo Organic Social Tonic - Variety Pack, 12 Pack - N.A. Functional Seltzer, Sparkling Water Made with Organic Adaptogens, Nootropics & Botanicals

These are my absolute favorite non-alcoholic drink... After a long day at work sitting down on the couch and having two of these will put you at ease. Will make you feel like the world isn't that bad. They make you feel just as good as alcohol does besides you're not drunk. No hangovers great sleep. I can't wait for these to be cheaper and easier to get. I wish these were at my local grocery. I highly recommend you try these

Gives a light feeling of being buzzed and relaxed. No headache or hungover feeling. There is a residue that forms at the bottom of the can or glass. I got the variety pack for my first try. The Peach Mango tastes the best to me. Im actually about to order more now!

Absolutely relaxing great tasting and affordable. I love it!!!!

This product is my absolute favorite "functional" alcohol substitute thus far. Caveats: it will not leave you feeling "buzzed," even if you slam 4 of the cans in an hour or so, but the subtle feeling of calm and relaxation is palpable, pleasant and worthwhile, especially as an athlete who cannot afford the metabolic cost of alcohol consumption. Granted how much I like it, there is BIG room for improvement IMO, and it looks like this. #1. It's expensive. Almost 4 bucks a can, a stick pack version would be welcome at $2/per, as I will easily go through 2 of these a day during the evening while fasting to help offset the sensations of food deprivation, for which this product is very useful. #2. Speaking of fasting, the 30 cals/can is really silly when the sucrose used to sweeten it (it's not even sweet) could be easily replaced by stevia. As it stands, this is how I prepare it -- a can in a shaker bottle with a good dash of stevia. So, the added sugar does nothing good IMO, and should be replaced with stevia, monkfruit, or whatever else. #3. Salt. Adding a dash of salt to this completes it, from both a health and taste perspective, along with the stevia. Salt assists with the utilization of the actives in the CNS tissue, helps to replenish electrolytes (esp. important in active populations), and makes it taste much better. #4. Something could be done to make the relaxing effect stronger without worry of too many unpleasant side effects. I'm not sure what that looks like, whether it would be adding kanna, kava, or something else, but that itself would make this an A+ product. That is all, no doubt I will continue to use, as I feel it helps me to relax, sleep better, focus in the evenings, and be there when food cravings hit during fasts.

I really was excited about using this product as I’ve been trying to find alternatives to alcohol or thc drinks. Something to give that a little of that vibe, but still be in control and not feel poorly the next day. I felt no float. I felt no buzz. I felt no vibes. I did feel relaxed - but I feel just s as relaxed when I consume a hot cup of tea. There’s a chance it could just be me - I’m sure like everything else, some people are more “reactive” to the ingredients than others. Decent taste. Very refreshing. Not too sweet. Does have that seltzer taste but not overly like a seltzer, which I was satisfied with since I’m not a huge fan of seltzers.
