Avoid the Aperitif, enjoy the Rum 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 taste attempting to hide behind a sickly sweet fluid. Afraid this one really doesn't work. The rum is best, the gin good in G&Ts, the whisky tasty as long as you don't think of it as whisky. Avoid the Aperitif!!!!

Re*review After giving U a 1 star review I am re-reviewing. My initial taste was stand alone sip but I have since integrated Ritual Zero proof into different mixes. I now change it to 4 star as it supplements the alcohol with a new flavor while cutting down on potency of drinks. Good job!

Ordering from Ritual Zero Proof Ordering from Ritual Zero Proof was super easy. I always love free shipping, so that is a plus. Their website is easy to navigate and well organized. The ordered item arrived in a timely manner and in the time frame originally given. I also appreciate that the order was in an appropriate sized package and not sent with unnecessary extra packing or too large of a box (as I like try to create less waste where possible).

The whiskey alternative is horrendous… 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 the alcohol burn. The tequila is a slightly better representation but also way too peppery on the finish. I asked my husband if he added jalepeno to my margarita. It's THAT spicy. I'm dreading the gin because gin is my favorite spirit. I just don't think I can stomach it if it's anything like the whiskey.

Ritual Zero is amazing Ritual Zero is amazing! I recently gave up alcohol but still wanted to have the experience of making fancy drinks and host friends over with an 'open bar'. Ritual Zero has conquered me and my friends! My favorite is the Tequila alternative. It smells like the real stuff! The Whiskey alternative smells great and makes an awesome N/A Old Fashioned. Finally the gin alternative is my least favorite but only because I have never enjoyed gin...I wish there was a rum alternative though! I need my AF pirate drink! All flavors have a nice kick to them that really mimics the alcohol burn.
