National Coffee Day: Conscious Coffee Cocktails with a Functional Twist

This National Coffee Day, we’re raising a glass to coffee culture with a conscious twist. At Holistic Spirits Co., we believe in a better way to drink—where premium craftsmanship meets wellness innovation. Our Origen Holistic Vodka and Harmony Holistic Gin are distilled clean, enriched with functional botanicals, and thoughtfully paired here with coffee and adaptogenic mushrooms from Medula for an elevated, mindful celebration.
