What do you love about the taste of whiskey? The smokiness of American oak and mesquite? The sweetness that comes from vanilla, caramel and sugar floss? The pleasant heat that lets you know you’re enjoying a glass of something special? We put them all into Ritual whiskey alternative, but left out the alcohol and calories. Use it 1:1 in place of traditional whiskey to create easy low-ABV Manhattans and zero-proof Old Fashioneds--along with a full range of handcrafted flavor profiles that just might become your favorite third drink. Or the only drink you enjoy.
