Frequently Asked Questions

Beyond Bottleshop specializes in thoughtfully curated non-alcoholic and functional beverages. Here are answers to some of the questions we hear most often. Don’t see yours? Reach out—we’re always happy to help.

What is a functional beverage?

A functional beverage is designed to offer something beyond great taste. It may include ingredients such as botanicals, adaptogens, electrolytes, or functional mushrooms—often chosen to support energy, focus, calm, or hydration. Think purposeful ingredients in a drink you’ll genuinely enjoy sipping. Everything we offer is non-alcoholic, so you can keep the ritual and experience of a thoughtfully crafted drink—without the alcohol.

What's the difference between a mocktail and a MODtail?

A mocktail is a non-alcoholic cocktail, built for flavor and the feel of a real drink. A functional drink adds ingredients meant to give you something extra, like calm or focus. Plenty of what we carry is both: a mocktail that also does a little work for how you feel.

Can you help me choose something?

Yes, that is our favorite part. Tell us one drink you used to order, or just how you want to feel, and we will hand you something that fits. Stop into the Springfield shop for a recommendation on the spot, or send us a note and we will point you to the right bottle online.

Do you sell gifts or variety boxes?

Yes. A variety box is our most popular gift and our most popular starting point, since it lets you or someone else taste a curated mix instead of guessing on one bottle. It is a great pick for anyone who is sober, sober-curious, or just drinking less. You can find boxes in the online store or ask us in the shop.

Do you ship, and where?

For now, we ship in Ohio and the Midwest.

Do you offer wholesale, or stock bars and restaurants?

Yes. We work with bars, restaurants, and event hosts who want credible non-alcoholic options on their menus, and we offer wholesale, catering, and consulting. A few local spots already pour our drinks. See our Local Partners page, or reach out to talk about your menu.

Do you host tastings or events?

Yes! We host guided tastings, Modtail-making workshops, pop-ups, and community gatherings with partner venues. These relaxed, welcoming experiences are a great way to discover drinks you might not try on your own and connect with others who are drinking differently.Follow us on Facebook and Instagram for upcoming dates and event details.

Still curious?

Still have a question?

If you did not find your answer here, send us a note and we will get back to you. We would rather help you find the right drink than have you guess, whether you are shopping online or planning a trip to the shop in downtown Springfield.
