a little bit of everything

alkaa…happily ever after

But really, happily ever Alkaa! I still can’t believe there is a product on the market that allows me to enjoy the occasional alcoholic beverage stress-free.

I stopped drinking in January 2022 because it was time. My body hated me every time I had alcohol. Even if it was half a glass of wine. I’m talking about major hangover symptoms without hardly having anything to drink. It was such a frustrating cycle that I had dealt with for YEARS and I finally decided it was just not worth it. My body doesn’t like it, so why am I forcing it? It was that “definition of insanity” situation and I realized that perpetuating the cycle was truly insane. So I stopped. But it wasn’t easy because, for one, I enjoy the taste of alcohol. Also, I love to have a drink with friends. It’s fun. And lastly, unfortunately, people read too much into why you’re not drinking, which can get old 😆. Especially when you don’t know how to explain it…”I’m allergic to alcohol”..? I never knew what to say.

So I wrote off drinking for life. And then Paul and Sara came over for dinner one night and brought these little “tea” bags with them and said they could be used in alcohol to extract the things that commonly make people feel sick…i.e. tannins, sulfites, histamines, etc. and my brain was blown. I had no idea such a thing was possible!!! Literal geniuses. They were kind enough to gift me a few bags to try out and I haven’t looked back since. GAME CHANGER.

If you are someone who deals with alcohol intolerance but would still like to have a drink now and again, you should try Alkaa. It is a little miracle bag that I swear by. And if you’re not happy with the product, or it isn’t working for you, they have a money-back guarantee! Amazing. (Side note, I tried to have a drink not too long ago without Alkaa because I forgot to bring them and I got so sick. Not worth it. Never doing that again!) (Side side note, they also work in soy sauce! 🤯)

The Alkaa website and their Instagram explain how to use them but basically, you steep a bag in your drink for 5 minutes (set a timer) and then pull it out and enjoy your drink! You can use one bag for two drinks as long as it’s the same type of alcohol, just let the second drink steep a little longer. It doesn’t change the flavor or integrity of the alcohol either. And if you’re not happy with the product, or it isn’t working for you, they have a money-back guarantee! Amazing.

If you purchase through my link, I do make a little commission which is so generous of Alkaa and it doesn’t cost you a thing! So thank you!
