What Reviews Reveal About the Best Moments to Snap, Squeeze, Stir

Whenever, wherever, and however you like to indulge, Wims stays ready in your pocket, there to elevate any moment with a dash of optimism and delight. The options for when to use it are endless, and preferences are personal and varied. Wims can go out dancing, take a jog through the woods, enhance a bedtime routine, turn small talk big, cure the Mondays, and so on. Curious about which moments reign above the rest as the most popular times to enjoy Wims, we took a look at our reviews to find out.

When You’re Social Drinking, but Don’t Want Alcohol

By far the most mentioned way people use Wims is to participate in social drinking, without drinking alcohol. When you’re out with friends, having a drink in hand—to sip, to toast with, to stir thoughtfully—is part of the ritual. And now thanks to Wims, that drink no longer has to be alcohol.

“I got these so that I could add them to club soda with a splash of cranberry and still feel like I'm "drinking" when I'm out at the bar with friends.”

“Went to a Mexican restaurant—my friends ordered margaritas, I ordered a club soda with lime and snapped my little packet. I saved calories, had a great time, and no alcohol after effects the next day.”

“I bring it with me to parties or bars, and can still have a fun drink in my hand but without the alcohol.”

When You Can’t Risk a Hangover

There are nights that call for a celebratory buzz, and there are mornings that demand a clear head. When those two circumstances happen back to back, Wims lets you have it all. Lots of reviewers shared how Wims lets them enjoy a buzz without the hangover. And one clever reviewer mentioned an underrated plan B: using Wims to soothe a hangover when your fate’s already been sealed.

“Amazing alcohol alternative that "takes the edge off" hard days but doesn't leave you miserable the next.”

“It's just enough of a boost for a good time, without the lingering hangover that too much of a good thing can get you.”

“I threw it in a Gatorade and it saved my hangover. Highly recommended!”

When You Need Extra Parenting Patience

A lot of our reviewers love Wims for the way it lets them indulge, while still showing up as the parents they want to be—whether that’s unlocking a sense of childlike wonder, feeling rested enough to appreciate an early Saturday morning wake up, or simply finding a bit of extra patience for the chaos that is kids.

“Helps me be a chill parent!”

“Perfect for a night of gaming on the couch with the wife, both with a drink in hand that won’t kill us when waking up for the kids in the morning.”

“Helps me through witching hour with my kiddos and on the nights I put these into my mocktails, I sleep better than ever.”

When You Want a Good Night’s Sleep

There’s a big difference between waking up from a night of drinking alcohol, and waking up from a night of drinking Wims. Even if you dodge the hangover, alcohol disrupts the quality of your sleep, making for a groggy morning and fuzzy focus the next day. Wims, on the other hand, lends itself to a restful night that leaves you refreshed and ready to greet the morning with a smile.

“A non-alcoholic beverage with a Wims packet an hour before bedtime is giving me some of the best sleep I've had in years.”

“As I’m getting older a nightly glass of wine began to disagree with me. I’ve replaced it with a WIMS LaCroix cocktail and it leave me so relaxed, sleeping like a baby and completely refreshed when I wake up.”

“I was not only relaxed and calm, but I also had my best night of sleep in a long time!”

When You’re Transitioning from Work to Leisure

Another fan favorite moment to indulge in Wims is when crossing the threshold from work, to leisure. For so many of us, that first sip of a crisp, cold drink is how we know we’ve made it—the stressful day melts away, and leisure takes its place. With its calming CBD and elevating THC, Wims offers a wonderful alternative to alcohol as a way to mark that shift.

“This was exactly what was needed. Perfectly calm relief from an extremely stressed life. Would recommend to anyone looking for a bright turn in their day!”

“I quit drinking recently and these help me relax after work. It's been a life saver!”

“I’ve been trying to cut out drinking, but I still need a way to unwind after a day of work. Wims work like a charm.”

There are all kinds of reasons that what you choose to drink can be a personal—and private—choice. Sometimes, you want to opt out of alcohol without having to explain why.
