Three Spirit

The Social Elixir

About

We are a motley crew made up of experienced founders, new product developers, phytochemists, herbalists, mixologists and community builders, and have just launched the UK’s first ‘social elixirs’, Three Spirit which we sell to people and to trade Three Spirit is a new, natural alternative to booze containing eleven plants used for centuries in ceremonies and potions. It’s bittersweet with a curious savoury bite and a natural, blissful feeling from active compounds such as theobromine and L’theanine. It’s the brand new feeling that gives many part-time or full-time non-drinkers a ticket back into the party. We make grown-up drinks that deliver on both flavour and function. Our mission is to make social moments happier, healthier and more connected through the amazing, and often over-looked, super-powers of plants (something we’ll be exploring much more on our blog @BeyondAlcohol)

  • The team behind Three Spirit has sought to emulate the positive effects of alcohol, using plants and herbs (it even worked with phytochemists to map what alcohol does to the body). The result is a combination of 11 ingredients, including lion's mane, yerba mate and cacao, that has a grown-up, powerful taste and is best served simply with a small amount of soda and ice. With Tristan Stephenson and Thomas Aske from Fluid Movement (Black Rock, Worship Street) involved, this should be marked down as one to watch.

The Spirits Business

  • Three Spirit was created by a team of bar experts, including Fluid Movement founders Thomas Aske and Tristan Stephenson, to be a zero-­abv spirit alternative that “replicates the positive effects of alcohol” using plants. The team behind the brand looked to grasp alcohol’s “positive effects” and how it “interacts with the receptors in our nervous system”. Research revealed plants with active compounds that interact with these same receptors. A total of 11 plant-­based ingredients were used in Three Spirit’s creation – including lion’s mane, yerba mate, cacao and damiana – and the liquid is said to have a bittersweet, earthy and spiced flavour.
