How to replicate slightly tipsy...without alcohol??

[Vible]

I’m not a big drinker, not evangelical or anything, just incredibly lazy and prefer to be able to drive everywhere. Also up & out at work very early doors. Oh and also a bit fat, but working on not being.

Anyhow, last night I had a (large) glass of wine before friends zoom catch up and I was SO much more in the mood. Really perked up.

I’ve had a similar perk up after a double espresso, but The Internet tells me not to drink caffeine after 4pm or I won’t get to sleep.

So, any intel on how to (legally) replicate that large glass of wine feeling please, without the alcohol?

A ton of sugar, but be prepared for a major crash an hour later.

Codeine?
Cannabis?

Cannabis

Or just enjoy the glass of wine.

Berocca?

Do some intensive exercise for a high. You'll feel relaxed not long after

If you want to alter your mood with drugs legally, there are very limited options, and pretty much all of them will have some unwanted side effects.

I think you're out of luck.

Thanks all.

A ton of sugar I can get on board with. Although that’ll be at the expense of losing the fatness.

Intensive exercise - like a HIIT session maybe?? I’d be a sweaty mess, but worth a try.

Cannabis. Surrounded by it in my youth, but never tried it. Is this the time maybe??

I "know someone" who vapes THC in the evenings in place of their usual wine for a little brief buzz.
Get a little high and none of the calories.

The sugar recommendation is just plain stupid. Do you want to feel like shit afterwards.

Yes, try HIIT. Anything intensive really.

Get a little high and none of the calories.

Until they get the munchies.

A glass of fizz works for me, gives you a lovely buzz. Only need a small glass so can usually drive after a meal (though I am incredible lightweight)

Thanks again all

Is the fizz bit relevant do you think? So could non-alcoholic fizz be a goer?

One of my mates says drinking anything out of a wine glass, even fizzy water, give her a tipsy feeling.

Wouldn't work for me but might be worth a try!

Hard if you want to avoid caffeine. try non-alcoholic beer or wine for the placebo effect?

Stand with your arms outstretched and spun around until you feel a bit dizzy.

A couple of strong cups of coffee

Sugar

Or just have the glass of wine

When we were little we used to stand in the garden, look at the sky and spin round and round really fast. Then feel really dizzy, a bit sick and laugh hysterically because we couldn't walk straight and fell in the bushes.

Jane Oh I see you're a fan of the spinning round too

I must admit I haven't tried it for years and would probably just give myself a migraine.

Kombucha is beautiful. I make it myself and drink it in a wineglass

I am so going to try the spinning around idea. I’ll move all breakables first, mind.

I was going to say do some intensive Yoga and then randomly when you are in an inverted position, just stop and stand up.
I was doing you tube yoga and the internet briefly crashed. I went briefly blind, which may be more pissed than tipsy!

Maybe try a combination of these suggestions and report back later if you haven't thrown up

I'm all for trying to get high on life so would second the advice to try a burst of exercise, watch something really funny or give someone a big hug just for the feel good factor.

Weed
Codeine
Tramadol

Sounds like quite the evening! Not sure my wfh/homeschooling would be on top form the next day though...

Bloody hell. Yoga sounds dangerous!
