This innovative brand combines eco-consciousness with premium ingredients, offering a lower-calorie formula that allows you to enjoy your favorite beverages without the guilt. At just around 50 calories, these mixes open up a world of possibilities—from refreshing Margaritas to classic Old Fashioneds.
If you’re looking for a tasty cocktail without having to fine-tune your mixologist skills, Mixxers is a perfect way to do so. All you need to do is pour the sachet contents into a glass, add alcohol and water, stir, and add ice, and you’ve got the perfect cocktail in 60 seconds! My favorites were the Margarita, Mojito, and Cosmopolitan.
What I loved about Mixxers was that they didn’t taste like you’re a typical pre-made cocktail mix. Because the ingredients are both organic and freeze-dried, the flavors don’t mix ahead of you doing the mixing and sustain their fresh flavor profiles.

Eco-Friendly Packaging: Each mix comes in sustainable sachets, the size of a tea bag, helping to save hundreds of thousands of plastic bottles from landfills every year.

These are seriously some of the best-tasting protein bars I have ever tasted.

The products are made every week in small batches, to ensure freshness.
If you’re unsure of which bar to choose, they have a Savory Protein Bar Tasting Box where you can sample all five flavors – Cheddar & Chive, Cheddar & Jalapeño, Parmesan & Black Pepper, Tomato & Basil, and Whole Grain Biscuit.

Abstinence Spirits
Discover the perfect addition to your bar cart with Abstinence Spirits, a sophisticated brand offering delicious non-alcoholic whiskey, rum, and gin alternatives. Crafted using sustainably sourced botanicals from the diverse Cape Floral Kingdom in Cape Town, South Africa, these small-batch distilled spirits are designed to elevate your drinking experience, whether you’re celebrating the season or simply enjoying a refreshing sip.
I’ve tried the Abstinence Cape Spice that delights with its rich vanilla and natural spice blend. I enjoyed it over ice and was very impressed at how complex the flavor profile was. This spirit features coconut hints, cinnamon, clove, and caramelized sugar notes, enhanced by South African Honeybush.
Whiskey Alternative: Enjoy the rich, complex flavors of our whiskey alternative, perfect for crafting classic cocktails or sipping neat. A botanical-inspired blend that captures the essence of traditional whiskey without the alcohol.
Rum Alternative: Delight in the smooth, sweet notes of our rum alternative, ideal for tropical cocktails or mixed drinks. This versatile spirit enhances both non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages, making it a favorite for every occasion.
Gin Alternative: This gin-style spirit highlights the aromatic Cape Rose Geranium as its main ingredient, offering a lovely mix of floral, herbal, and citrus notes. It’s further enhanced by juniper berries, angelica root, and coriander. Its slightly bitter and herbal profile pairs beautifully with premium tonic water, making it a perfect choice for those looking for a sophisticated, alcohol-free alternative to gin.
Citrusy Non-Alcoholic Spirit: Abstinence Cape Citrus is a non-alcoholic spirit that bursts with vibrant citrus flavors and is complemented by subtle notes of warm spices. It provides a complex and refreshing experience that is both enjoyable and sophisticated. With hints of grapefruit and delicate botanicals, it mixes effortlessly with soda water or tonic.
Abstinence Spirits also make Aperitifs and Spritzs in Blood Orange and Lemon flavors. I tried the Abstinence Blood Orange Aperitif, which delivers a sophisticated complexity of flavors without alcohol content. This distinctly South African interpretation of traditional Italian bitters showcases prominent blood orange notes harmoniously combined with carefully selected natural botanicals, including African Wormwood and Cinchona Bark, creating a refined spirit substitute.
Abstinence Spirits stands out with its commitment to quality and flavor. Their products are not just non-alcoholic alternatives; they are expertly crafted experiences that allow you to savor every moment. Whether you’re hosting a gathering or enjoying a drink at home, choose Abstinence Spirits for a festive, flavorful celebration that everyone can enjoy.

I was able to try the Stone & Spear Natural Essentials Bundle (see below) in the Citrus Vanilla scent (other scents are Cedar Citrus, Eucalyptus Mint, Tropical Lavender, and Unscented) which was so refreshing, but not overpowering. My favorite products in the bundle were the Moisturizing Body Butter and the Natural Lip Balm (which did keep my lips feeling soft for longer than most other lip balms I’ve tried. Tallow is a key ingredient in these products and the essential fatty acids found in tallow help to keep our skin healthy and hydrated by acting as a natural sealant that locks moisture into the skin.

Orbital Coffee
Elevate your coffee experience with Orbital Coffee, where the art of brewing meets health-conscious innovation. Say goodbye to the harsh chemicals and bitter flavors of traditional decaf coffee. Orbital Coffee redefines decaffeination by using the Swiss water process, ensuring a smooth and unforgettable brew that you can enjoy guilt-free.
If you LOVE coffee but are looking to cut back on your caffeine intake, I cannot recommend a better decaf specialty coffee than Orbital Coffee. It comes in either whole beans (or your choice of grind) or concentrate, and they are both equally delicious. I’ve tried the Ethiopia Decaf Cold Brew Concentrate, Columbia Decaf Cold Brew Concentrate, and Columbia Half-Calf Whole Beans. As a fan of cold brew, the Ethiopia Decaf Cold Brew Concentrate stood out to me with its vibrant flavors of peach and honey.
What makes Orbital Coffee so delicious is the fact that coffee beans are grown across different regions of Columbia. And yes, the coffee is organic. Plus, Orbital uses sugar cane ethanol acetate from the abundant sugar cane byproduct to decaffeinate our beans. No chemicals and no funny business, just vapor and sugar cane ethanol acetate.
Why Choose Orbital Coffee?
Chemical-Free Decaf: Enjoy a cleaner, healthier alternative to conventional decaf options.
Sustainably Sourced: Our beans are harvested from single-origin, fair-trade farms, ensuring ethical practices.
