For the Gin-ger Enthusiast

We formulated our cans with the help of both a food scientist with her master’s in adaptogenic herbal medicine and a neuroscientist advisor who weighed in on how certain adaptogens impact our moods and nervous systems. We chose Reishi because it delivers a slight “take-the-edge-off” feeling and has a calming effect on our nervous systems. We also love that Reishi has long been revered as the “longevity mushroom” in Chinese medicine – the original biohacker of the fungi kingdom.

The natural flavors in Ginger Mule are derived from extracts of ginger, lime, citrus rinds, lavender and other botanicals.

Our products contain monkfruit juice concentrate that does not contain erythritol or sugar alcohols.

Unlike mushroom coffees, we don’t grind up mushrooms and put them in our drinks. Instead, we use ultrasound to extract the beta Glucans (the part of the mushroom with health effects and no flavor) from the lion’s mane and Reishi, and then we add that extract to our drinks.

As much as you want — unless your doctor has told you to limit your consumption of lion’s mane (in both spirits) or damiana (only in St. Juniper).

We’re all chasing that feeling of being a little bit smarter, like everything you say is clicking with the other person and you’re present and in the moment. We think of that feeling as magnetism – like you’re attracting the best in yourself and another person. That’s why we included lion’s mane, a functional mushroom long revered for its association with increased cognition, focus and overall brain functioning. We’ve had Little Saints dinner parties where all our guests drink is our St. Ember and St. Juniper —and can conclusively report that people head home feeling happy, elevated, smart and in flow.

No. We don’t like to use the word “buzz” around here because we tend to associate it with the feeling alcohol provides, and reishi mushroom isn’t a 1:1 swap for alcohol. So while canned beverages won’t give you a buzz, they are formulated to “take the edge off,” so to speak.

Now that tens of thousands of people have tried our cans, we’re confident in just one thing: everyone feels different things! Many people report a slight “take the edge off” feeling, where, after having a can, they notice that they’re in a slightly better mood —more relaxed, less tense. Some people don’t feel anything and drink Little Saints cans simply because they know organic reishi mushroom is good for them.

Little Saints cocktails are crafted with natural botanical extracts and flavors that may contain trace amounts of alcohol (less than 0.5% ABV), well below regulatory limits for non-alcoholic beverages and similar to apple juice, flavored sparkling water and kombucha.
