Our neighbors to the north keep asking when they’ll be able to get Ritual. Rest assured, we are working on it. Until that happy day when we can officially cross the border, we offer this small token of our gratitude and esteem. Technically, it’s a low-ABV cocktail as opposed to a truly zero-proof mocktail. If you don’t have Cognac use brandy, and if you don’t have or wish to use brandy, an extra 1 1/2 ounces of Ritual whiskey alternative will also do the trick while keeping this strictly non-alcoholic. Cheers!
