I won’t get into the flavors - I’ve tried Golden Hour and Très Rose. Just here to say, both gave me a buzz and also both have given me a hangover feeling, drinking just one. Maybe it’s an allergic reaction - but it feels like a hangover. Digestive issues, headache, dragging the next day.
Honestly love this product. Champagne Dreams is my favorite of the two major products. At first pour the bubbles bring me so much joy. I felt like the description was spot on I could taste all the flavor notes, apricot forward with lingering syrupy strawberry, and a bitter grapefruit finish. It’s fruity without being overly sweet and doesn’t have the over powering vinegar taste I have found with other non-alcoholic alternatives. (If you’re not a bitter girly definitely pass on this one)
I absolutely love De Soi!
I have tried every flavor now, but my favorite is the Italiano Spritz. It tastes like how I always wanted an aperol spritz to taste like! Its not too sweet, filled with citrus, and it quite refreshing. This is my favorite for the afternoon. My sister who is not sober loved it so much, she was searching online where to find it near her apartment. She said she enjoyed it more than a typical Aperol Spritz!
The Tres Rose is reminds me of a sweet juicy Rose bubbly. There are times where I have gotten a can that taste a bit too acidic, but overall a great drink. A great option for a picnic in the park. I had a non sober friend try it, and she enjoyed it! Rose is her favorite wine.
Purple Lune is my favorite evening drink. It reminds me of red wine, and is rich in flavor. It does have lions mane mushroom in it so there is an earthy element, that some may not like but I enjoy that!
The Golden hour reminds me of a ginger kombucha, and I do like it but its my least favorite.
Thank you De Soi for helping me along this alcohol free journey!

In their own words
/DE•SWA/
De Soi is a range of sparkling non-alcoholic apéritifs with natural adaptogens, inspired by the French ethos of pleasure and restraint.
Co-founders Katy Perry and Morgan McLachlan, teamed up to make a more considered choice for happy hour. De Soi was created as a way to find pleasure without the proof. It’s an apéritif made for moments you don't want to forget, whether you’re laughing with friends over dinner or indulging in a solo toast to yourself. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
As creative professionals and busy moms with a shared love for a spritz, the two wanted a drink that was bubbly and delicious, but that didn’t get in the way of early mornings and long nights. A drink that was truly fun to sip on, and still allowed us to feel present and engaged while taking the lead. A drink that married our passion for plants and better-for-you ingredients with big, bold flavor and feel-good adaptogens.
Enjoy!
