Ritual Zero Proof
Ritual Zero Proof, the leading non-alcoholic spirit in the U.S., is the fastest-growing alternative on and off-premise. We offer retailers and customers a straightforward way to enjoy cocktails without alcohol, positioning ourselves as The Liquor Replacement.
At Ritual, our journey began not as an anti-alcohol movement, but as a response to the need for responsible drinking. Whether it's for health reasons, avoiding hangovers, or personal choices like training, dry months, or pregnancy, Ritual provides a solution.
Similar to the success of non-dairy milks and plant-based meats, consumers seek alternatives that offer a familiar experience without drawbacks. Ritual fulfills this need in the liquor industry. We proudly hold the #1 position in the rapidly expanding non-alcoholic spirits category, with endless potential for growth.
