Aplós Chili Margarita is a non-alcoholic, sparkling cocktail made with Aplós Arise, mandarin, Persian lime, orange habanero and sea salt. Each serving contains adaptogens and nootropics for a stimulating effect. A 4-pack retails for around $21.99.
Still and non-bubbly, with minimal chili expression so light that it feels misaligned with the name. More freshness, acidity, and heat would be needed to deliver on the margarita and chili expectations.

House Review
Nose:
Salty with a lime aroma lacking the brightness typically associated with a classic margarita.
Taste:
Flat and lime-forward, with a distinctly synthetic citrus character. Subtle hints of nut and mild spice appear briefly, though the promised chili presence remains restrained.
Finish:
Short and flat, with little lift or lingering heat.
Overall:
Still and non-bubbly, with minimal chili expression so light that it feels misaligned with the name. More freshness, acidity, and heat would be needed to deliver on the margarita and chili expectations.
