Popularized in France and Italy, the apéritif–or aperitivo in Italian–is a bittersweet botanical beverage meant for sipping slowly pre-dinner. Originating from the Latinamperiremeaning “to open up”, apéritifs stimulate your taste buds and get the conversation going.

De Soi [de - swa] comes from the French phrase maîtrise de soi, meaning self-control. Made for indulging mindfully, our range of non-alcoholic apéritifs are inspired by the French ethos of pleasure and restraint.

De Soi is a range of sparkling non-alcoholic apéritifs. Each bottle and can is brimming with the kind of culinary botanicals you’d find on the menu at your favorite local restaurant, from yuzu and chamomile to rooibos and rose. The secret’s in our adaptogens, mind-mellowing botanicals that put the fun in functional, helping you create, relax, and ease into the night.

You got it–our apéritifs are entirely non-alcoholic. Instead, we use natural adaptogens like reishi mushroom and lion's mane to give you the stress-soothing effect you look for in a nightcap.

However you like, really! De Soi is made to sip straight from a glass, or all done up with citrus and herbs. We prefer ours chilled with a bit of garnish.

Our apéritifs were designed to be fun for everyone. That said, check with your doctor if you have any questions or concerns about drinking De Soi.

Calorie count varies flavor to flavor. One glass (approx. 5 fl oz) of Très Rosé has 20 calories; Golden Hour, 35 calories; Spritz Italiano, 40 calories; Haute Margarita, 40 calories; and Purple Lune, 40 calories.

Our apéritifs are shelf-stable prior to opening. Once popped, a bottle will stay bubbly for about a week. If you don’t finish it in one go, keep it chilled in the fridge after opening.

Purple Lune and Golden Hour contain green tea extract that leaves trace amounts of naturally occurring caffeine. However, the amount is minimal and the beverage has generally calming properties. Très Rosé, Spritz Italiano, and Haute Margarita are caffeine-free.

Sedimentation is completely natural and safe to drink! Like many natural beverages, from wine to kombucha, some sedimentation may naturally occur in De Soi. This is due to the fact that we don't use stabilizers, and have opted to use minimally-processed whole ingredients, with little filtration. This sedimentation may appear in either the bottom of the bottle, or on the neck and closure (if the bottle was lying flat in transit, for example). If desired, the bottle may be gently inverted a couple of times to re-suspend the particulate.
