A Third Space for the Soul: Inside Connecticut’s Exclusive Wellness Speakeasy

If you’ve been craving connection without the noise… ritual without regret… and a vibe that nurtures instead of numbs—you’re not alone.

Welcome to Velvet Sips—Connecticut’s first members-only botanical lounge built for professionals, wellness seekers, and sober-curious souls who want a better way to unwind.

This isn’t a typical “sober bar.” It’s a sanctuary. A third space for your soul.

🥂 What Is Velvet Sips?

Tucked away in the heart of Connecticut’s Manifestation Valley (think Naugatuck, Seymour, and Ansonia), Velvet Sips is a kava speakeasy designed for those who want:

  • Functional, botanical drinks that restore and ground

  • A beautiful, low-lit space for intentional connection

  • Evenings that feel like an exhale

  • Rituals that relax without the risks of alcohol

No kids. No hangovers. No pressure. Just clarity, calm, and conversation.

🧘♀️ Born From Vision. Built With Intention.

Velvet Sips was created by someone who’s walked both worlds—as a former executive navigating high-stress leadership, and as a mindful, self-aware human who's redefined what presence means.

I’ve lived the hustle. I’ve lived the hangovers.
And I’ve built something different because I needed something different.

This isn’t just an extension of my other venture, 3-21 No Kiddin’—it’s an evolution.
For those who want more than a retail experience.
For those seeking depth, beauty, and belonging.
For those ready to redefine how they gather, sip, and socialize.

Velvet Sips is for us—the ones who are done settling for social spaces that don’t feed the soul.

🌿 What’s in Your Glass?

At Velvet Sips, we serve botanical brews rooted in ancient traditions. Every drink is crafted with purpose:

  • Kava – known for its heart-opening and anxiety-reducing properties

  • Ashwagandha & Adaptogens – to melt stress and restore balance

  • Lion’s Mane, Reishi & Functional Mushrooms – for focus and grounded energy

  • Non-alcoholic cocktails & elixirs that support your body and soul

This is drinking reimagined—where you feel better after, not worse.

🧘 Why It Matters

Let’s be real: traditional bar culture doesn’t serve everyone. For those navigating sobriety, burnout, or just looking for more meaningful nights out, there hasn’t been a space like this in Connecticut—until now.

Velvet Sips solves the problem so many high-functioning adults face:

“Where can I go to feel connected without sacrificing my health, values, or vibe?”

We offer the ritual without the hangover, the community without the chaos, and a curated membership that makes every visit feel like coming home.

🔐 Why Membership?

Velvet Sips runs on intention, not volume. That’s why access is exclusive—because the energy here can’t be mass-produced.

Members  will  enjoy:

  • Unlimited drinks with one flat annual fee 

  • Access to exclusive hours, events, and private wellness workshops

  • A familiar, high-vibe crowd that shares your values

  • Free-flowing kava and functional elixirs, anytime we’re open

 No upcharges. Just show up, sip, and feel good.

This is your third space.
Your retreat.
Your reset button in a glass.

📍 Local & Intentional

We’re building this for Connecticut—for the locals who’ve outgrown bar scenes but still want social connection. Whether you live in Fairfield County, New Haven County, or the heart of the Valley, Velvet Sips is your sanctuary nearby.

This isn't just a sober bar. It’s a wellness destination hidden in plain sight—for executives, creatives, healers, and high-vibe humans who want more out of life and less out of a bottle.
