Experience
I purchased Aplos as an alcohol alternative and was unimpressed. -Flavor was ok but did not feel affects -Was expensive for what it was -Tried a few times but didn’t end up finishing
Experience
I really wanted to love this product! I love the company, its team, and its mission, but the product just wasn't for me. I tested the original drink and was excited to try something that gave you the sensory experience of drinking while remaining NA. However, the flavor profile hit me way wrong. It tasted soapy, and I couldn't mix it with anything that got rid of the flavor (and the flavor of this drink is somewhat the whole point of buying it!). I'm open to trying more of their drinks as they come out, but I've stayed away since the first one was such a bomb for me.

Aplos is the absolute best of the dozens of alcohol alternatives J have tried. I love the lemony, herby taste with its slight bitterness. I drink it on ice with sparkling mineral water , a squeeze and a slice of lime and a sprig of rosemary or a mint leaf, or add some lavender or hibiscus Kombucha. Good depth and definitely feel the calming effect.

Pricey…..would subscribe if it were a bit cheaper.

i'm always looking for ways to mimic the feeling of a cocktail, but i'm drinking less alcohol these days, and aplós really meets the moment. i got to try it when they first launched and i can't wait to try it again and give it a permanent home on my bar cart as the weather's getting warmer.

it's a gorgeous light taste that pairs well with bubbly water and fruit, or whatever other concoctions you desire.

I wanted to test this product out as a non-alcohol drinker. The idea is great - there aren't too many mocktails marketed out there besides a lemonade or a soda that you can find at your local restaurant or house gathering. However, I can't say I felt "calm" after drinking this. I mixed it with a low sugar carbonated water on the rocks to give it a cocktail effect in a fancy glass. The drink is herby for sure, however, I can't say it was better or worse than just having the carbonated water alone.

Honestly the best non-alcoholic spirit out there and I’ve tested them all!
Experience
During dry January, my husband and I tried MANY different alcohol alternatives. We landed on Aplos Calme Tonic as our daily "go to" evening cocktail. Our favorite cocktail is to mix it with diet tonic water over ice. In our cocktails we us 1.5 oz per drink, two drinks each per day. So price is very similar to, or less than what we were paying for our daily wine consumption. Aside from a special event or dinner out, we have nearly eliminated alcohol from our diets. We've even lost weight and feel great!

I wish this product was more available in stores.

Aplos is one of my favorite non-alcholic beverages. It's really strong and bitter tasting, which I like a lot. I like drinking and serving it stand alone as an alternative to mezcal or whisky over a sphere of ice and rosemary stem. The only con is once you open it you should drink it in the first few days. It has a horrible shelf life and noticeably goes bad after a week.
Feedback
Better shelf life.

The taste profile is so unique and their branding is everything

I wish there were more flavors to choose from!

I've been trying to drink less because it's just not making me feel that great anymore. Aplos has been amazing. I've tried lots of the non-alc spirits and they are all trying to be something else. I love that Aplos has its own flavor - medicinal, floral and delicious.
