GBMocktails for the win! Love these alcohol alternatives- the gin is surprisingly my favorite! Really enjoy trying out the cocktails in the recipe book provided with the sample pack of all three. Makes me feel like I'm fitting in with the group while having a drink in hand without all the carbs, or the hangover!

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!

GBAvoid 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!!!!

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.

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.
