Functional & Adaptogen Drinks

Be connected, confident, and your best self today, without paying for it tomorrow. SENTIA make non-alcoholic drinks, crafted by neuroscientists to help you relax, socialise, and thrive. Using the science of your brain’s GABA system, we’ve created functional drinks that support you being you: calm, clear, and connected.

SENTIA Spirits: Functional drinks to Mix, Share & Enjoy

SENTIA is a radical departure from the world of uninspired alcohol-free imitations, sugary soft drinks and basic adaptogen blends. We have pioneered a new category of functional drinks & spirits, specifically engineered by neuroscientists to enhance social connection.

By targeting the GABA system—the same mechanism responsible for the desirable, prosocial effects of alcohol—our spirits offer a sophisticated way to access increased sociability and emotional balance without the typical downsides.

Our collection remains uncompromising on health and inclusivity:

  • 0% ABV for total clarity.
  • Low-calorie and low-sugar, with GABA Red containing only 9kcal and 1.6g of plant sugar per 25ml serving.
  • Vegan and gluten-free credentials ensure everyone at the table can participate.
  • Caffeine-free compositions allow you to find your vibe without the jitters or the subsequent crash.

This is more than a drink; it is a tool for better socialising, designed for those who refuse to choose between wellness and their social life.

How do Sentia Functional Drinks work?

SENTIA is about the simple joy of human connection. We have all been there—trying to decide between the hazy 'buzz' of a cocktail or the flat, uninspiring choice of a sugary soft drink. SENTIA offers a third way. By marrying botanical insight with cutting-edge neuroscience, we’ve created a functional drink that helps you find your "sweet spot" of sociability without the morning-after regret.

The secret to that warm, relaxed feeling you get after a glass of wine is a neurotransmitter called GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid). While alcohol is a blunt instrument that often leads to that "drunk" feeling and poor decisions, SENTIA is a precision tool. It uses a specific blend of all-natural adaptogenic ingredients designed to gently enhance your brain's existing GABA.

Tested By Science, Loved By You

I had to stop drinking and wasn’t expecting SENTIA to work. GABA Black with cola tastes like rum and coke and delivers a merry buzz. I’ve recommended it and just ordered another bottle.
Ashleigh
GABA Red, ice, and a quality tonic—perfect for winding down after work, with just the right spiciness.
Axel
I love it. 10 out of 5 stars.
Bernie
At a 40th party, I had two glasses of SENTIA with ginger beer. Felt lively and a bit drunk like everyone else. Wore off cleanly. Felt like I was drinking too. Would recommend for a buzz without alcohol.
Craig
Having cut alcohol completely, this drink is a total game changer! Amazing for social drinking with friends.
Hannah
SENTIA is a game changer!!!! I avoid alcohol due to hangovers. This is the only alternative I know that actually works—you feel like you’ve had a couple. And it’s delicious!!!
Jeanette
Very good, felt relaxed, no hangover. Perfect
Jonny
I drink it neat—spicy with a little throat burn. Great social lubricant without the toxins!
Juls
Wanted something to replace my evening G&T. This hits the spot—I love the taste, feel more relaxed, no longer crave alcohol, and I sleep better with fewer calories.
Michael
I am AMAZED with how SENTIA made me feel. A few glasses brought that joyous "buzzed" feeling, like alcohol—but no brownouts, no headaches. Felt confident and sociable. This stuff is the future. Can’t wait for new flavors.
Kevin
I gave up alcohol over a year ago. Tried SENTIA with low expectations, but I’m truly surprised! Slightly unusual taste but works well with alcohol-free fizz. After a couple glasses I feel relaxed and chilled. Total game changer!
Amanda
As a 40-something home-working parent, a clinking glass of something refreshingly bitter marks the end of my day. I’ve tried 0% gin substitutes and they just make me want a real drink; SENTIA is satisfying on its own terms. I’m a total convert.
Lucy
As autistics, this stuff has been game changing for me and my wife. We've tried herbal products before but nothing comes close to SENTIA.
Samuel
SENTIA is for sure my number one choice when it comes to alternative drinking. Great taste on its own, on ice or as a mixer. I love being creative with it and sharing with friends. The buzz is awesome too.
Lola
Early in sobriety I tried alcohol-free alternatives—they were unpalatable. Then I found SENTIA. Now I look forward to winding down without hangover anxiety. Three and a half years sober and SENTIA’s been a good friend.
