A Delicious “Alcohol Alternative” Recipe That Gives You The “Feel-good” Buzz Of Alcohol
Feeling a bit less-than-stellar after your New Year's alcohol intake? Or a few too many Christmas cocktails? Here's my latest alcohol alternative invention that I drank over New Year's evening…and it's pretty tasty too.
To get all the feel-good buzz of alcohol without actually drinking alcohol, while actually DECREASING not INCREASING inflammation (due to the ketone content), simply combine:
- 1 bottle of KetoneAid liquid ketones (FYI the salt/ester combo is not only less expensive, but tastes BETTER than the pure ester version). You can use code BEN for free shipping.
- 1 shot of Kin Euphorics, which is a mixture of nootropics, adaptogens, and botanicals designed to give you similar effects as alcohol, without the toxins.
- Optional, but recommended: Top with sparkling water like Pellegrino or Gerolsteiner, and then add a pinch of a good salt.
So there you have it! What should we call this new drink? Kintones? Kintosis? Kintonic? Leave any of your ideas in the comments section below, and *also* let me know your favorite “non-alcohol” cocktail alternatives.

Special Announcements:
::: Huge Savings On The Artificial Intelligence Bike Now In My Office :::
CAR.O.L is the first cloud-connected exercise system to compress a 45-minute workout into 2x 20-second sprints. Yes, you read that correctly, and there's science to back it up, which I'll gladly sum up for you…
Extremely brief spurts (10-20 seconds) performed during a quick 10-minute-a-day workout achieved more superior health and cardiovascular benefits than a long, boring, steady-state workout.
Standing for Cardiovascular Optimization Logic, CAR.O.L is an AI-powered, interactive bike with self-learning algorithms. “She” automates each HIIT workout and guides you through touchscreen and audio prompts. This thing is clinically proven to give you the same cardio benefits of a 45-minute jog in under 9 minutes, with only 40 seconds of hard work. It has built-in AI algorithms that personalize your resistance to guarantee you hit max power every session in order to deplete your glycogen stores as fast as possible.
Click here to get the bike, and use code CAROL2021 for…
- $350 discount…
- $156 towards a 1-year Peloton Digital subscription…
- Free 1-year CAR.O.L subscription, and…
- A free chest belt!
It's incredibly convenient, especially for the office—you can just get on and get off during one of your “Pomodoro” breaks.
