GBThe 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.

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 ordered the whiskey alternative I ordered the whiskey alternative. The package arrived timely, the packaging was lovely, and there was a booklet of cocktail recipes included. I made some Old Fashioneds for my husband and I and we were pleasantly surprised by the flavor and warmth. My husband was even up for a 2nd round, which he rarely wants with other alcohol alternatives we've tried. Curious to try the other flavors.

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!

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.
