The Drink
5 questions01What is Tongue Tied, exactly?
Tongue Tied is a non-alcoholic social tonic powered with over 1200mg of botanical herbs per can. It does what a social drink is supposed to do: lowers the noise in your nervous system, loosens the shoulders, lowers social anxiety, and raises natural confidence so the conversation in front of you gets interesting again.
Designed for human connection. Crafted for the nights you’ll actually remember.
02Is Tongue Tied alcoholic?
No. Tongue Tied is 0.0% alcohol, 0.0% THC, and 0.0% CBD. The feeling comes from a calibrated blend of adaptogenic roots, herbs, and botanicals that help your nervous system settle while your attention gets sharper.
03How much of the active blend is in each can?
Every can carries a proprietary 1200mg blend of active botanicals — three per flavor, each with a job. That’s a meaningful functional dose, not a sprinkle.
See the full formula →04What does it taste like?
Depends on the flavor. RED is lemon, ginger, and chrysanthemum — warm, a little spicy, floral on the finish. BLACK is black currant, pomegranate, and hibiscus — dark, tart, slightly dry. SILVER is strawberry, grapefruit, and elderflower — bright, clean, a little wild.
All three are crafted like cocktails, not supplements. Light, playful, naturally flirty — low sugar, no artificial anything.
05What size is a can? Any calories?
12 fl oz. ~60 calories. Low sugar. Cane-sugar free, plant-based, organic and non-GMO active ingredients. No artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners.
How It Feels
5 questions01What actually happens when I drink it?
Most people feel the shift within 15–30 minutes: a little lift in mood, less edge in the room, more patience for the conversation in front of you.
Not a buzz. Not sedation. More like turning the volume knob of your nervous system down a notch so the world turns up.
02Will I feel anything the first time?
Usually, yes — especially if you’re the kind of person who notices subtle shifts in your body. That said, some of the adaptogens (ashwagandha, maca) build with regular use. The more consistent the ritual, the more reliable the feeling.
03Can I have more than one?
Yeah. It’s designed to be enjoyed like a cocktail — pace yourself, see how you feel, have another. We recommend starting with one and giving it about 30 minutes.
04Can I mix Tongue Tied with alcohol?
You can, though it’s built to stand alone. A lot of people use Tongue Tied as their one drink of the night — or as the “going home” drink after a couple of real ones, so tomorrow shows up softer.
If you’re bartending at home, our Recipes book has cocktail builds that use Tongue Tied as the functional backbone.
See the recipe book →05Will it keep me up at night?
Not in our experience. Tongue Tied isn’t a caffeine bomb. RED is mildly energizing, BLACK is warming and focused, SILVER is calming — most people can have one with dinner and sleep fine.
If you’re extremely caffeine-sensitive, skip the RED right before bed.
Ingredients & Health
4 questions01What’s actually in it?
Every can has a curated trio of traditional botanical tonics plus real-ingredient flavor. RED uses maca root, tongkat ali, and epimedium. BLACK uses tribulus, muira puama, and epimedium. SILVER uses ashwagandha, damiana, and passionflower.
All three flavors ship with a 1200mg active blend, cane-sugar free, plant-based, organic and non-GMO.
See the full formula →02Vegan? Gluten-free? Non-GMO?
Yes, yes, and yes. Plant-based, gluten-free, and made with organic, non-GMO active ingredients.
03Any caffeine?
Trace amounts naturally present in a few of the botanicals. Not enough to buzz you. If you’re caffeine-sensitive, try SILVER first — it’s the calmest of the three.
04Is it safe if I’m pregnant, nursing, or on medication?
Tongue Tied contains functional botanicals — please talk to your doctor if you’re pregnant, nursing, or taking any prescription medication.
A few of our ingredients (ashwagandha, damiana, tongkat ali, tribulus, epimedium) can interact with certain medications, so a two-minute check with your provider is worth it.
