Huzzy Smart Sips
Huzzy Smart Sips are an innovative way to indulge in a drink that helps to protect your liver. That’s because each of these mocktails contains better-for-you ingredients. For starters, they have no GMOs, caffeine, or refined sugar. Huzzy Smart Sips are vegan, low-calorie, low-carb, and gluten-free. But most importantly, Huzzy Smart Sips feature carefully chosen adaptogens and nootropics that support your liver and gut wellness, in addition to promoting good vibes.
Explore their array of flavors, including the Berry Banger Margarita with Basil, Spill the Tea Long Island, Siesta Sip with Blood Orange, Golden Elixir Whiskey Fixer, Pow Wow Moscow Mule, or Honey Pop Lemon Drop. Huzzy Smart Sips go beyond being a delightful nonalcoholic option. The nutrient-rich recipes help safeguard overall well-being. They contain dietary fiber to support your digestive system, and the antioxidants packed into every flavor fight oxidative stress.
I loved treating myself to one of these smart sips as a way to end the work day with no fuzzy feeling the next day. Huzzy’s mocktail blends are richer and more complex than an average nonalcoholic drink, so they deliver that cocktail vibe. My favorite flavor was Spill the Tea Long Island, which has superstar ingredients like L-Theanine, Lion’s Mane Mushroom, Cordyceps Mushroom, and Holy Basil. Berry Banger Margarita with Basil is another delightful choice that features passion flower.
Entrepreneur Mahisha Dellinger, from the show “Mind Your Business with Mahisha” on the Oprah Winfrey Network, is the creative force behind Huzzy. She also founded the organic hair care company Curls. Dellinger is a high-powered achiever who, in her quest to find a healthy way to decompress (instead of binge-watching Love Is Blind UK, like I would), founded Huzzy Smart Sips, and I’m glad she did. Cheers.
Liquid Fables
If you prefer a traditional drink with alcohol, try Liquid Fables‘ farm fresh canned cocktails. This Hudson Valley Distillery offers farm-to-glass cocktails inspired by the legacy of stories. Liquid Fables crafts each blend with a specific fable in mind. The Town Mouse & The Country Mouse, for example, is a gin cocktail with blueberry and basil. My favorite – the crisp Tortoise & the Hare serves up vodka, lemon, and mint. Little Red Riding Hood brings a cherry limeade vodka cocktail to grandmother’s house. And The Boy Who Called Wolf is crafted from vodka, ginger, and strawberry.
Now the cocktails don’t get their names because fictional tortoises like mojitos or story-time mice favor a nip of gin once in a while. The names of the cocktails are meant to inspire you to tell your own stories, fictions, yarns, or tall tales as you sip and share these drinks with your friends.
Visit Liquid Fables’ headquarters in their Hudson Valley tasting room, a little over an hour from NYC. It is a laid-back setup to try their latest craft creations, such as the Core & Cask Series blends, which combine New York State apples with rye whiskey, arriving just in time for autumn.
Liquid Fables also has a quality merch line featuring its story illustrations. Check out the super-soft tees and creature-covered tote bags that give NPR’s tote a run for its money.
Bring Liquid Fables canned cocktails to a party or bbq. And keep some on hand in the fridge for an impromptu celebration.
