TOST is an alcohol-free, effervescent beverage made of white tea, cranberry, and ginger. I’m not going to bury the lead here. You’re going to love the taste. I think it’s delicious. Bubbles are for everyone! This drink has no problem standing on its own.
And stand it does! The packaging on this drink is just as good as the taste itself. The bottle looks elegant, and its logo has a clean, effortless design. You will carry this bottle with pride coming into the holiday season. It’s the perfect alcohol-free option for any gathering that might end up on your calendar. They also have some pretty great mocktail recipes on their site. You can check them out here.
Sip! Sip! Hooray! That’s just one of the many notes from their customers on the TOST website. If those don’t convince you, head to their media page and see what The New York Times and the Washington Post had to say about TOST. Or you can save time and listen to me when I tell you this is the drink for every occasion.
“TOST…this is the drink for your every occasion.”

Refreshing is just one word I would use to describe this bubbly beverage. The white tea, cranberry, and ginger work well together. Each taste holds its own but does not overpower the other two. Last weekend, I drank a bottle and binge-watched The Home Edit on Netflix. I do love a good “Me Party.”
(If you’re a Home Edit fan, send me a picture of whatever you organized! I want to see it! I’ll show you mine if you show me yours!)
DID SOMEONE SAY “ME” PARTY?
As a side note, it felt a little funny to write the words “I drank a bottle by myself.” In this case, there were no consequences—well, other than a happy palet. (Thank you, TOST!) Back in my drinking days, well, that would have been another story. There were always consequences.
If you’re in recovery from alcohol, too, then you know what I’m talking about. After 14+ years alcohol-free, I have many other things I would rather speak about versus my drunk-a-log. Trust me, I qualify. When I start drinking, I can not stop. I can’t stop until I blackout, run out, or pass out.
This is why I choose to celebrate brands like TOST. Giving up alcohol was the very best decision I ever made, and I protect it at all costs. That said, I still want to celebrate. Having options for tasty alcohol-free beverages is really (really) essential for a gal like me.
When I first got sober, there were no options outside of the typical water, coffee, or tea at events and gatherings. Alcohol-free beverage options have always seemed to be an afterthought. Want to know how that translates to a non-drinker? Our needs don’t matter.
There is a sober-curious movement happening, and it is just as real as the global COVID-19 pandemic. Whether you choose to acknowledge it or not, both are very much happening. Sobriety, or sober-curious living, started trending last year, as noted in the New York Times article we referenced earlier.
If being sober is on-trend, then high-five to me! If being on-trend means that more options, like TOST, become available, then I am all about that life. Everyone likes to have options. Everyone (hopefully) has moments in their life they want to celebrate with a toast!
Some days are hard. (Like maybe every day of 2020?) I gave up alcohol, but sometimes, I still need the ritual of making a tasty beverage—the ritual of just sitting, sipping, taking deep breaths, talking with a friend, and reflecting on my day. These days, I just want to do all of that without the buzz. Beverages like TOST allow me to socially celebrate with others or just feel fancy at home, and I will cheer for that!

Sober Curator Pro Tip: prepare for the bottle to blow! There is no cork, but that doesn’t stop the twist-off lid from blasting white bubbles in every direction. Super fun! (assuming you enjoy the element of surprise)
