A magic root made for setting the mood, this nutritional powerhouse is loaded with vitamins, nutrients, and phytochemicals that turn you on. Find it sprouting high in the Andes of Peru, where for centuries the people there have cultivated and consumed maca regularly, boosting their sexual vitality and verve. Beyond its feel-good properties, the plant also lends a sweet, nutty flavor to Golden Hour.

Aptly named, lemon balm is like a balm for the soul. If that sounds corny, hear us out – the perennial botanical is said to enhance mood, boost libido, and reduce stress, which is why you’ll find its mild lemon scent used in aromatherapy. In Golden Hour, lemon balm works in tandem with maca to spur creativity.

L-theanine is a key amino acid component that comes from green tea, the most consumed beverage in the world behind water. Known to enhance cognition, this nootropic component contains just trace amounts of caffeine, so it won’t make you tired or wired–just a calmer, more mellowed out version of yourself

I had a baby recently and went through a prolonged dry period. I didn’t miss alcohol per se, but I did find that I missed the ritual of enjoying the complexity of a nice glass of wine, or having an elegant cocktail as a way to unwind after work, or when connecting with friends. I wanted the relaxation, fun, and sophistication of a drink, without the alcohol.

This is the second time I have purchased De Soi. I like all 3 flavors but think this is my favorite. Last night I brought 2 cans - this one and Luna - to a fine dining establishment where I knew the wine would be flowing. I drank alcohol the 2 nights before and felt like I needed the night off. I was satisfied with the De Soi and did not miss the wine. I love wine and cocktails and have found prior non-alcoholic wine awful. De Soi offers flavors that are complex and not too sweet - they are able to trick my alcohol-loving palette.
This has an unusual taste but it is so refreshing & lovely to drink. I do think the small amount of caffeine in the ingredients keep me awake so I have to drink it early!!
A perfect post-work decompress. Light and herbaceous. I love all three flavors but particularly golden hour because it's the perfect alternative to a crisp white wine.
