My favorite guilty pleasures may be coffee, chocolate, and wine, but sometimes too much of a good thing can throw me off balance.
Moderation is key, they say, but when I need to relax and unwind I’ll get in a good stretch and pour myself a little wine. It’s just one glass—until it turns into two or three—and before you know it, I’ve canceled out my morning yoga routine.
And while exercise may lessen some of the negative effects of alcohol, I hate feeling bloated, groggy, and generally unhealthy. But recently, a friend told me about Aplós Calme, a hemp-infused, non-alcoholic refreshment that delivers calmness and relaxation without the calories and hangover.
At first, I was skeptical, but it has totally changed my life!
Here’s how:
1. Aplós Calme helps me unwind, naturally
While hemp-infused Aplós Calme won't get me high, it’s quickly become my go-to spirit-like refreshment when I need to relax and unwind after a long day. I like to drink it with a splash of lime seltzer and enjoy it outside in my garden. Crafted with a complex blend of all-natural citrus and herbal botanicals, Calme is a bubbly alcohol alternative that makes me feel gentle and calm after just one drink.
Since discovering Calme, I’ve kicked those pesky hangovers—and late-night munchies—to the curb! Now I wake up feeling refreshed, energized, and ready to seize the day.
2. It’s crafted by an award-winning mixologist
But what about the taste? Aplós Calme was crafted by award-winning mixologist Lynnette Marrerors, so of course it’s delicious! The herbal citrus flavor profile has extracts of rosemary, basil, cucumber, and dandelion that makes it zingy and totally refreshing.
Infused with broad-spectrum, organically grown hemp for a calming and uplifting feeling, this alcohol-free refreshment delivers mindfulness and zen in a bottle. Whether you drink it neat, on the rocks, or in a mocktail, there are dozens of ways to enjoy it–-and you get 10 servings per bottle.
3. Goodbye to hangovers and empty calories
Every moment is a chance to begin anew, and as a yogi mama to two girls, I’ve chosen the path to fewer hangovers, and improved health and mental wellness. Since making this zero-proof spirit a new healthy ritual, a sense of calm and clarity has replaced the “hang-xiety" I’d experience the morning after one too many drinks.
Sugar-free and citrusy, this feel-good cocktail fills me up with functional ingredients that inspire thoughtful conversation and introspection—without guilt and empty calories.
4. And hello to premium quality ingredients designed by nature
From the first sip to the last, Aplós Calme helps me escape life for a moment of calm and destressing without the harmful effects of alcohol. Crafted with all-natural ingredients, broad-spectrum hemp helps regulate my mood, appetite, and sleep—but there’s no THC so I never worry about accidentally getting high.
In addition to subtle, sweet marijuana-flavored hemp, this zero-proof drink also contains bold citrusy extracts like yuzu and calamansi, herbalicious extracts of rosemary, basil, and coriander, and dandelion and gentian root for a little earthy bitterness. I also tasted refreshing fresh mint, cucumber, and shiso, which also reminded me a little of a mojito.
Final thoughts
Since switching out my occasional glass of wine with an Aplós Calme non-alcoholic mocktail, my weekdays are more productive. I wake up feeling refreshed and energized, and my skin looks better too!
While I’ll still reach for the occasional glass of wine, I no longer need it to unwind after a long day. After all, the way Aplós Calme calms me down naturally makes me a true believer (and my wallet thanks me too)!
