GBUnexpected, 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!

GBDoes not taste like gin Does not taste like gin. I've had a lot of gins over the years, keeping 3-4 of my favorites in my liquor cabinet and regularly trying new brands and styles. I typically have a G&T and/or gin cocktail most evenings Spring through Fall, and consider myself familiar with the range. To me this 'gin alternative' has a taste of toothpaste and jalapeno. After trying Ritual's 'gin alternative' three different ways, I cannot think of an occasion where I would want a gin and would chose Ritual's 'gin alternative'. I've gifted the rest of my bottle to a friend who likes a challenge -- we'll see what they can make of it.

GBDisappointed Disappointed. I have been contemplating buying this for a couple months as I'm pregnant and really missing margaritas. I got sucked in with a free shipping email and decided to finally try it. I tried several recipes and all of them were undrinkable. I'm very disapointed. The tequila alternative is VERY spicy which I was not expecting. I don't feel like it added anything to the flavor of the other ingredients I added it to except for spice. I definitely won't be trying any of the other flavors. I wish it was available in smaller sizes so I wouldn't be out $26 and stuck with a big bottle of this stuff.

GBI 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.

GBI am so impressed with the Ritual… I am so impressed with the Ritual tequila! I am pregnant and was looking to enjoy some mocktails while socializing with people who are drinking. Every other product I tried was gross and filled with sugar. Ritual has zero calories and truthfully tastes like tequila. I made watermelon margaritas and everyone liked my mocktails more than their own real cocktails. Buy some! You won't be disappointed!
